How Did We Miss This? Chrome rear tail light extension
« on: April 19, 2007, 12:06:27 PM »

So one week after I get my Street Glide light installed this new item is available from the MoCo.  Just great.

Sure would have been simpler to go this way.  Not sure I would do chrome but I sure as heck would have thought about it OCD and all.

Tri-Bar Lighted Rear Fender Extension Kit

Add a "tail-dragger" look to the rear fender. The Tri-Bar Rear Fender Extension wraps the trailing edge of the fender in chrome, and the integrated Tri-Bar LED light bands add a practical touch. The three smoked light bands glow red in the running mode, and increase in intensity when the brakes are applied. The complete kit includes the chrome-plated ABS housing, fast-acting LED lamp assembly, and all necessary installation hardware.

91067-07 Fits '99-later FLHR, FLHT, FLHTC, and FLHTCU models.

MSRP US $179.95

Too funny.  I've still got my parts here waiting to get them painted to match the red.  So not as far along as you.  Might eBay the whole mess and consider this; except I think I like the look the whole thing painted to match. 

Will have to think about it a little bit..... 

Hmmmmmmm?

Don, I think  agree, but this appears to be a simple install and it would have been worth looking at, that's for sure.

Is it possible that it's too much chrome?  (don't tell d00d I asked that)

I'm just not sure yet.  Think I'll print out the picture.  Sit on the floor behind the bike with a beer; and think about it for awhile.

Actually glad they're offering options that are more than just new wild-hair painted parts.  I did, however, cringe a bit when I saw this one.  Having just bought the "old" light I said a bad word (actually a compound bad word) upon seeing it:

Street Glide™ Tri-Bar Light Upgrade - Auxiliary Running Light / Brake Light

Upgrade the FLHX Street Glide™ model's Original Equipment Tri-Bar fender light from a single-mode running light to a dual-mode running and brake light. The three smoked light bands glow red in the running mode, and increase in intensity when the brakes are applied.

Well it must have been the one I just uttered when I saw your post.  I didn't even read the detail in the chrome one about the M F'n run/brake modes.  Damn

Yeap, the new chrome piece includes the dual function light that is now available separately for the FLHX light housing.  So there is some benefit to be rationalized there (above and beyond chrome by itself).

Haven't really thought about the back of the bike yet.  My first reaction, however, is the flowing one piece part is going to look better and perhaps be a bit less obtrusive than the chrome piece just hung in the center.  Especially since we've already got paint to match filler strips the chrome piece would be juxtaposed against.

Guess the rear light function adding a brake function isn't all that big a deal down that low either.  Hell, we're lucky to get folks behind to see the lights up in the line of sight.  But, still.......    :huepfenlol2:

My first reaction is ooh-aah! Since I too bought the painted version may have to take a step back and reconsider. I am still working on saddlebag fillers to go with look of extended bags. The chrome is sweet looking, but the paint version has filler covers with it ( although the fillers aren't exactly the look I want they are close). One thing for sure if they is something different or new someone on this site will find it!  :2vrolijk_21: John

I was thinking with the bling extension on the exhaust and the chrome in the middle on the extension the look might carry off ok.

Really mute now though since I already have the monochromatic thing going on and I do like it.  Guess I just spent another $90.00 for the dual function though, I just can't get away from having more light and brake awareness for the cages.

Have to catch the third wire someplace too.  All three exist on the red bike going to saddlebag spoilers and lighted latches.  So I've got them there by the struts anyway (without having to go all the forward to the accy connector or behind the batter).  What about using one of those light amplitude modules?  Oh, it's an LED, never mind....

I like that too.  Actually like the overall line better than the new Harley piece described here.  Were it not for already having their similar licence plate ass'y mounted up higher (and really liking it) I'd have done this before.  It's a nice looking piece.

But like the other license plate stuff.  And actually do like the FLHX thing.  Even though the filler stips overall shape I think needs to be tweaked a little.  But with painted to match and maybe the addition of a stripe or two to blend it in better I think it'll look ok.

Never will be able to get a SERG if it comes available at this pace.    :)

The Kuryakyn might be better suited for the SEEG's and the MOCO for the SEUltra's..

Good looking for an Ultra but I like the Street Glide look for the SEUC.

With the SEEG we've kind of already got a SEHX/SEEG anyway.  The one piece thing I think will be the best looking overall option.  Even if it is stuck on.
