Has anyone fitted any, with or without the luggage, and if so please share a photo/description.

Thanks.
 
Not LC. I will admit, but I have a set of rear indicator / stop lamps fitted to my hexhead

Got a set of these from here....https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00LEQ8JO8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 which i then stuck to the top box (left and right side in vertical position) and wired in to my HEX EZcan (www.hexezcan.com). works with the brake light and will flash 3 times when braking before staying on constant. Of course, if you don't have the EZcan, then it could just take a feed from the brake light loom.

Hope this helps.:beerjug:
 
Thanks both - I think it would be good to upgrade from the single brake light, however, it has to look good and function properly.
 
Yep me.

Cost £1.50 per side and linked to the ExCan.

Off is at 10% light power. On is at 100% light power. So they act as side lights as well.

They are not the highest quality items and probably will need swapping over every now and then. But can't complain at £1.50

Two of my other GSA mates have fitted these and they look really good. Make the back end of the bike seem bigger. :thumb2

Also got the same set up as warlord, on the ezcan. I've had a few other bikes and mates asking how and where fitted.
The initial flicker and flash when you apply the brake attracts the eye, which can only be a good thing.:beerjug:

They work well don't they :)
 
I've got a set of Skene P3 lights. They are fitted to my LC RT and work fine without any EZ Can, just taped into the wiring and ok with the Canbus. Check their site for fitting to a GS. Very good company, US based, you would have to import them.
 
Thanks - there's quite a few Skene installations on YT - I'd not heard of them until this thread.

On the Skene site they show various installations and how to wire them up. Skene are very good and stand by their own products. I had no issues putting them onto my RT LC, installation was very straight forward. But I bought mine before the pound devalued, so now I expect they are a bit more expensive.
 
I have bought THIS but have yet to fit it.

It is almost exactly the same size as the reflector below the OEM brake light but not so close that it is a direct replacement. I am probably going to mount it over the reflector to connect up to my Hex EzCan.

Hi Andy B you don't know if this is Can Bus compatible do you. I like the look of this but don't have a Hez ExCan and don't really want to go to the expense as I have few other accessories .

Cheers
 
Anyone fitted indicators to sides of their panniers ? Been mentioned by riding mates that at certain angles, the bike indicators can't be seen due to the panniers. If so, photos etc would be appreciated .

Just in case anyone else was wondering I have emailed the manufacturer and they have confirmed that these are not Can Bus compatible.
 
Hi Developer,

I have a 2016 GS TE and I fitted a set of these connected in to my HEX Ez CAN so I can set a % of normal rear light and Brake light.

I have just spotted this so you can use them as I have without the expense of buying a HEX Ez CAN:
