That's different. They don't match timing wise so my OCD meter would be off the chart.......

I don't believe it's a mod but the way the camera captures the LED lights.

Not sure that is a mod... may be just the way the video captures the lights... If I'm not mistaken I've seen that happen before when rear of bikes have been recorded. Try recording a video of yours and see what you get. :nixweiss:

Once I put my compensator back on and I can start the bike...........maybe I can get out there this week.....

Kinda hoping it was a module I could order

It's definitely an attention grabber for the person behind you.

I don't think it is anything to do with recording a video. I've taken several videos of my bike and they don't look like that. I bet there are at least four videos in my build thread... Now you're going to make me find this mod.......  ;)

For purposes of discussion assuming it's not a frame rate issue but actually the way the lights are displaying would that be legal on the street?  I thought anything approaching a flashing red light on the public roads was forbidden?

Pretty much the same effect as watching a show on TV that has a computer monitor in the background. It seems like the image on the monitor is "rolling".


Anyway, Love the sound of those pipes. :2vrolijk_21:

I wouldn't think it'd be street legal. Parking lot presence only...

Constant flashing could be a problem but some states allow tail light modulators. In Virginia you can flash tail lights for 3 times then must have steady light.
