    dont waste your money and fuck expensive CNC machining for your LED's.

    check these out its what you need.

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...n-28493186.htm

    you get four of the things in the pic for $18. Look at my video and compare the lighting on the rear and the lighting around the engine...

    You'll be surprised to know that the $20 is on the rear, and the $100 neon tube setup is on the front...

    He says they arent waterproof, but i've found that unless you intend on spraying it with highpressure water the clip together casing does a pretty good job.

    Also the LED's last longer, are brighter and much more discreet.

    I just wired all the positive leads together through a switch to the battery, all the negatives are earthed to the frame.

    i checked the LTSA website recently

    see here

    from the site:

    Fitting requirements
    Cosmetic lamps can be any colour as long as they meet the following requirements.

    They must be angled downwards and fitted so that the light source isn’t directly visible from the front or back of the vehicle (this will prevent the lights distracting, confusing or dazzling other road users). See diagram below.

    -You must not be able to see the light source (lamp) from anywhere in the shaded zone.
    -They should only give off light that is spread out (diffuse) rather than light concentrated in a beam.
    -They must not be positioned close to essential lights such as headlights or indicators.
    -They must not flash, pulse, fade in and out or change colour.
    -They must not revolve, rotate or move in any direction.

    basically as long as your source light is well hidden you are sweet... unless you wanna be a gay ass boy racer with flash colour change ones - thats just not cool

    Sweet, I wasn't far off with my theory on the law...

    The guy at work that set up my LED for me connected the LED to the back brake light and earthed it to some screw that gave him the right number on his little electro reading thingy under the passanger seat (I'm not very switched on with electrical stuff... lol thats why I didn't do it myself). The bulb is attached to a bar on the frame of the bike visible when you take the riders seat off... fits really nice under there... It's a perfect job except for the shitty cheap bulb I brought off TradeMe (not the same as the one you just showed above). I think mine would look better with 2 bulbs or just one good decent bulb.

    The ones in the engine look choice... But I'm not sure if I'd want to install it myself lol, and also I'm planning on taking my farings off and giving my bike an all over clean (I don't think it's had a real inner and outter clean the whole time I've owned it and the person before me...) before I go adding stuff in there...
    I'm not a complete idiot... some pieces are missing

    Pimpin? Should like this then www.pimphats.com

    I would like to get some bling for the CBR, but it's gonna take alot of time and money to get it looking good, then even more to 'pimp it'. I don't have a chance

    I've only had two negative feedbacks on my LED lights... lol but that might be because you can't see them unless you know to look for them lol
