I'm kinda late jumping on the Led bandwagon but here's my limited experience from a couple of days ago. Installed a no name brand that I got for free. Not impressed. It was a little brighter but the brake light wasn't much brighter than the tail light. Next I tried a set of these after watching a you tube video. Sylvania Zevo. Much impressed. :thumbup: I installed these in my w650 and sr400. Ordered 2 more sets to put in my wife and I's scooters. Here's a couple of links. Just skip through the you tube video till you get to the part where he uses the brake.

Your welcome Jim. For what it's worth they have a lifetime warranty. We sell them at the Advance Auto where I work part time. With my employee discount, I paid about the same price as Amazon.

Thanks for that info Buddy as I need to do that for my bikes as an added safety precaution. I have an Advance one mile from my house and always use the Speed Perks discount coupons.

Who all sat in on the seminar? Bet STAL didn’t do a better job of teaching than you Chris with the wine tasting seminar! I knew the 20th annual DG Meet was going to be special in so many ways!! Right, Chris and Buddy? :shh:
