I just installed mine last nite. Custom Dynamics magic-strobes-ss8

Took longer to take the seat off then it did to install it.

Looks great too with 7 settings.

Which connector do you splice into on the Road Glide?

You don't splice anything. You unplug the rear light harness and plug this unit into it. A monkey can do it!

The plug is on top of the fender under the seat

I'm using pattern# 5. Quad strobe, solid for 1 second, quad strobe, solid for 3 seconds and then It repeats

Just awesome!

Is it a pretty clean fit? :worthless:

Also, how does it work with the turn signals.  I have seen some flashers that make the signals somewhat confusing.

Thanks!

I don't know how to post a video but it works fine. Very clean install too. It's all hidden. Under your seat.  One zip tie and some 3m double sided tape for the controller and away you go!

Thanks, I appreciate the pic.  It looks like a pretty clean install and doesn't take up too much space.

I was curious if the signals (When using the brakes) had a good separation.  IMHO I like the four flashes and then solid for several seconds.  The strobing reminds me of a flashing from a loose wire connection. :nixweiss:

Looks like I have found my next purchase!

Received and installed the Magic Strobe -SS8 today. Boy was that a slick and quick install! I will be going with setting #5. :2vrolijk_21:

Makes me feel more comfortable about removing my rear reflector! :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2:

Jr1000s comment about taking longer to take the seat off is no joke! It's the easiest mod you will find and the video of the effect doesn't show the true quality of the light.

You will be happy - enjoy! :2vrolijk_21:
