Spoke to a LED installation shop in Florida they told me Florida frowns on blue and or red Leds  lighting up a bike. They said you are asking to be pulled over with either color. For what it's worth.

Heard that too, but only through hearsay.  Not sure if it's true or not.

Live here, Florida. Never heard or seen any evidence of the red led problem. Got a buddy with a E/G that glows red like a Christmas tree and has since 2006. He has never had a problem with police, not to say others haven't. But like me he rides at night a lot (the heat during the day sucks).

The color I've heard people have a problem with the cops with is blue.

Had a bike with blue LEDs.  Never got a ticket, but was told by Florida LEOs to not ride with the blue LEDs on.  Have heard the same on red, no firsthand experience though.

So what's everyone doing for the 4th of July weekend?

If this weather continues, beer and watching it rain.

This past weekend, even though the un-Godly heat has returned I rode down to one of my favorite places in Panama City Beach, Patches and had some awesome blackened seared Ahi Tuna taco!  The burgers there are famous around these parts.

I live in fla and see the led's of different color all the time. The only time I have ever seen Leo's do anything was if the led's were flashing. I have witnessed this first hand on Main Street during biktoberfest or bike week. Dozens and dozens of bikes trickling down Main Street with all kinds of led's and colors. Cops could care less.  But you make them flash in any fashion and they will light you up quickly.

Yeah this time of year the heat is just insane. My group usually only rides very early mornings home by lunch. Or at night. Most folks don't realize it's 80 degrees at 6 AM.

Shoot, up here in the Panhandle, the low for tonight is 75, and that's cool for July.

Be grateful for air conditioning here the way people are for heat in the winter up north.

Not even to August yet.  That is our REAL summer here.  Dipping to 74 tonight, a regular cool front.

I never have said or thought, "God I wish the humidity would come back!"  Been awesome lately.

[RedWings11]

Hurricane Nate seems to have brought the humidity back for a few days but it's supposed to vanish over next few days. Thought it was gone. Looking forward to the Fall Florida Rallies, Biketoberfest in Daytona and Thunder Beach here in Panama City (Beach)!
