I'm not sure where to find it but I did post something a couple of years back on what I used, along with a circuit connection diagram, to flash the tourpak spoiler, the saddlebag spoliers, and the tailight when braking. Can't remember but I think they all flash 3 or 5 times before going solid. Works very well despite what the laws may dictate.

Received my back off wig wag taillight flasher from Signal dynamics www.signaldynamics.com/products/Modules/wigwag.asp  The intent was to install it so that the tour pak lights would flash.  The instructions allowed you to wire it so the left and right tour pak lights would alternate quickly and cycle to steady on or repeat the flashing cycle.  Since the brake light was to be steady on, I elected the continuous flashing.  After reading the instructions it looked like a 40 minute project for a competent "wrench type."  I allowed 3 hours and used every bit of it.  

The instructions suggested installation under the seat.  I don't think that would work unless you add several lengths of wire.   The easier way to do it is by installing it under the tour pak liner.  The brake light wire splits and goes to each of the 2 tail lights in the tour pak at that location. You connect the back off upstream before they split and downstream after the split to each branch.  The final connection is the ground wire.  It works great and should provide some additional visibility for the elderly or distracted drivers out here in Arizona.   [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

So it flashes only when you brake then?

When you apply the brakes the device signals the left and right side of tour pak lights to flash rapidly 3 or 4 times each.  Upon completion they do it again at a slower pace.  After the cycles are complete you have the option to wire it to repeat the cycle or steady on.  Since my standard tail/brake light is steady on , I chose the option to repeat the cycle. The flashing from side to side is why the call it the "wig wag"

Hi Darrell;

I remember being most impressed w/ your work. Went to some of the threads cited and saw that the "attachment deleted" note. Presumably the hacker screwed your pictures. Any chance of reposts? Thanks a lot.

Yes magicl1,
Those LED lights all are Harley ones and the spoilers were painted by the Moco.I ordered them the day my bike came in since the dealer didn't know what color they were getting. They came several weeks after I picked up the bike and had the dealer do the install. The side LEDs and rear fender LED bar were installed before I took delivery.
I have been very happy with the Haze paint and bike so far. 8-)
I also got the LED bar on the leather Tour Pak. I think this may be the best location for safety in the back.I like having a running and brake light at driver's eye level.
VA,
Sorry for the late response and thanks.

Sorry for the late reply, for some reason our server isn't letting the notifications through. I will check my previous posts over the holidays and try to repost as many as I can.

Look at Hyperlite.com They have a set of LED pods that will fit into the cutout of the right and left sides on the laydown license plate bracket. I drilled a hole thru the license plate and the back bracket and mounted with double stick tape (supplied W/ Lights). They flash 5 times then go steady. These things are WICKED bright. Am thinking about another set down low on the filler strip between the fender and saddle bags. If not ok with DOT I'll take my chances with the judge!!!
