My BMW F650 has a wimpy tail light, and the turn from the highway to the road into my neighborhood is unprotected. I fear being rear-ended while waiting to turn.
I'm considering adding a Hyperlite brake/tail light.
Is anyone else using Hyperlites, or other LED lights? How do you like them?

I'm sort of mechanically challenged so to speak, but I do believe that the more visible we are the better. I'm thinking about getting the continuous blinking headlights and the blinking brake lights for my bike, even though I rarely ride after dark. There was a lot of discussion a while back about the additional lights but I can't remember the name of the thread. I'm sure there will be others that can be of more technical help than I, but my motto on the subject of lights is "The More the Better".

I have Hyperlites on my Ninja (installed after installed trunk - couldn't see taillight as well). The first time I rode after they were in place, I noticed people would back off of me when I tapped the brakes. I'll have them on my future bikes!!

I have a modulating brake light on the KLR :thumbsup:
I feel they should become a standard on all bikes.

Oooohhh, really? That's significant enough to look into. Thanks!

I would love to get some. I know I notice every time a bike has them!

Plus they are made right here in Michigan by a small business!! Again, I can't say enough good things about them, now I just gotta get the wiring kit for my new Givi cases and I'll look like I'm coming in for landing :D:
