Scot,

I just used the LED bulb replacement in my stock lens, no surgery and lots of light, even when not braking.

To be honest on the black bike I like red tail light more. White somehow seems out of place.

I know its all about individual tastes. So do not throw too many stones at me. Just my two cents.

Just an additional comment here after a conversation with the folks at Custom Dynamics about some turn signals I have ordered and the visibility/non-visibilty issues in the sun...they sell Kury products, Radiantz, and others.

This is simply an observation and in no way a knock on Kury LED products...further, these are my comments and not those of any vendor.

The Radiantz LED's are not the same as those used by Kury.  They are much, much brighter array's.  That is why they cost more.  So if you are considering LED's on the back of your scoot, consider this fact before you make the purchase.

Question for those running LED bulbs in the turn signals.

If using the Harley turn signal brake light conversion was a load equalizer required to run LED bulbs in the turn signals?

I’m going to place an order and was wondering if I should go with a Harley module or if I should go with the Badlands Illuminator module that includes the load equalizer in it.

pcr,
I've got the LEDs as turn signals. I used the HD module, it was an easy install. You'll need the Drag Specialities LED red bulbs. Don't use the Kuryakn bulbs, they will not fit the housing.

I did not use a load equalizer. The lights flash faster but that is fine with me for now. I used the exact same set up on my Deuce. The part numbers are the same because they both use the bullet style turn signals. AJ

Custom Dynamics offers up everything you need to do this conversion, if you want to take a look at their website.  It's all plug and play.  From my understanding, the load equalizer also prevents quirkly stuff with the alarm system.
