Add an LED light bar to the back of the bike and you have LED blinkers/running/stop lights. Makes you much more visible from behind too! I add 2 light bars to my bike...both flash 3 times when I apply the brakes before going solid.

The top one is from AST...his "LED Bar Version 2". It was one of the orders I was able to get from him. I'm trying to buy the 2" pullback risers but can't get ahold of him right now. Too nervous to buy from AST without contact first!Agreed. I have heard too many stories on here.
Do we have Can Bus or Non Can Bus Led bulbs?
Brian,
You are an asset to this forum
Thank you
Joe
Non- CAN bus. They are just plain old 1156- type incandescent lamps, nothing fancy. Check that part number first though as I am not 100% sure it is an 1156 (that is the right base but the actual lamp number may be different, different wattage, etc.).
By the way, the originals are not LED but incandescent. Stock, only the taillight and the instrument lights are LED on a C-14.
Brian
Thanks for the kind words but.... Joe? Aren't you Alex? I am confused.... do we have two people using the forum with the handle Gigantor? Are you both truly Gigantic (Alex absolutely IS gigantic)?
Brian
My name is Joe and there is only one Gigantor on this forum.
Peace
What he said...
So, the benefit to our bikes would simply be to control the fast blink rates with aftermarket LED signal bulbs... nothing with the rest of the electronics, yes? In reading that particular product, it seems they HAVE to use them with the BMW's CAN-BUS system because of the lower resistance of the LEDs... creates other electronic "fun" without them.
They are just plain old 1156- type incandescent lampsIndeed. But since the bulbs are amber, remember they have the pins offset, so you need a special European-style bulb to fit properly. Clear 1156 bulbs have the pins at 180ยบ. Those offset bulbs are hard to get, but you can definitely find LED ones that fit properly.
... Is there such a thing for the C14 that somebody has PERSONAL EXPERIENCE with? If yes, please post details of which relay solved your hyperflashing LED turn-signal problem. Many thanks.
Re-read my post on page 2, I gave links and pictures.Missed it man; thanks a milliion. But have a few more questions; hope you don't mind :
Which LED bulbs did you install? A link would help. I usually use superbrightleds.com. Problem with amber LEDs is they're dim compared to white.
