#161630 01star (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 28 Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   Does anyone have the Kuryakyn plug and play run-turn-brake-controller installed on their Road Star? I like the idea of having increased visibility to the rear of the bike, especially at night. Any opinions on this topic would be greatly appreciated!!!   Logged     Girls are like pianos.

If so I do, I love it, very bright, gigantic safety feature. Easy hook up great directions. But, don't take apart the signals like they want you to, I did one side like that, took 1.5 hour second side I fished the wire with a small stiff wire and tool 10 minutes. $100 at Yami store what I paid.   Logged     If you aren\'t running on the edge...You\'re taking up too much room!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #161635 BlackHorse (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 348 Re:Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   Yes, I installed it last summer...it increased my visability from the rear by a factor of three...I love it and recomend it highly.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #161642 Cougar (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3216 Re:Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   I installed one in 2007 and it is a major safety improvement IMO.It is an easy install took hmmmmm 10 minutes.I did as most do and got the extra load equalizer.I also replaced the amber bulb with a red one in the turn signals or you can get a red lens.Make sure you use a good fit on those lens screws when removing them they bugger real easy.Do a search with "Kury RTB controller" and you will get some reading on the subject....Coug   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/02/10 05:16 By Cougar.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #161647 Pop Rivet (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3123 Re:Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   A very good idea..it also has a back off feature that flashes the rear tailight and turn signals three times and then go steady .... if you dont like it... then just unplug the flash tab A pic with just running lights clear bulbs and red lenses..see how bright the signal lights are compared to the LED Tailight until the brakes are applied Then with brake applied you will probably need the extra load equalizer or the lights will flash too fast...   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/02/10 06:26 By Pop Rivet.   2009 Ultra Classic HD...2005 Silverado Road Star MY WEBSITE HOG HEAVEN Listen to the Road Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #161650 noxqsays (User) Why did I move to FL from MI? FL seemed warmer. Expert Boarder Posts: 410 Re:Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   I installed it last month. It took all of about 10 minutes to complete.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #161654 Ole (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 967 Re:Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   I've got that setup too and recommend it. In case you don't know. In the U.S. you cannot run amber running lights on the rear. Be warned that the silver/red bulbs that are out there are not very bright in case you consider buying a set. Some guys get a set of red bulbs and file off one of the tabs. Others paint their lenses red and run clear bulbs. Here's a link to a past thread on the subject.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #161689 takehikes (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 5142 Re:Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   I put it on and think it should come standard from the factory. I added LED Silver Bullets and it really lights up to the rear. Noticeable effect on the cagers thats for sure. I set it so it does the triple blink before it stays on when you pull the brake lever. That wakes them up to. I also think a Stebel horn should be required. Bright and loud works (not sure about loud pipes, they might hear you but you might not hear them so kind of a wash in my experience).   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #161705 BlkCherryBomb (User) If I do it today, then what is tomorrow for? Senior Boarder Posts: 262 Re:Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   I have it on order right now and look forward to getting it. I agree that this should be a factory setup. If they switched the taillight to LED then they obviously realize the need for increased visibility at the rear.   Logged     One ride is never enough.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #161726 slyguy (User) What happens in the garage stays in the garage. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1899 Re:Kuryakyn Plug and Play run-turn-brake controller 9 Years ago   yes, I installed it last year. Very cool and adds tremendously to your visibility. I use the flash setting. Very easy install.   Logged     2004 Road Star Silverado (original owner), over 55K mostly trouble-free miles Patriot Guard Rider, IBA Member, Star Touring & Riding   The administrator has disabled public write access.
