Do any of you guys run them? They have some that go inside the fairing vent, and some that can be used as light accents to illuminate the motor and other areas of your choosing.

My hesitation, is that it kinda seems like panora's box, and could cost a fortune to get everything needed. Wish they sold a kit? Seems like whatever lights you want, don't come with the "brain" or the controller, so you gotta get that in addition, and then most likely extensions, I'm guessing?

Is there another company that also makes these that would be better than Harley, kinda how Custom Dynamics makes better turn signals than Harley?

Thanks

I don't run accent lights on my bike. Local law enforcement is kind of strict near me... and I agree with you. The price is very steep for what you get, and you have to piecemill it together yourself. but there are a TON of options, depending on what you're after.

Kuryakyn offers Lizard light, which come as an "all up round" so you don't have to buy everything separately. These ones do t specifically light up certain areas like the front vent or speaker covers, but they'll cover the engine bay: http://www.kuryakyn.com/products/1806/super-lizard174-lights

They do sell a separate vent accent light for a mere $80: http://www.kuryakyn.com/products/4650/led-fairing-vent-accent

And here's another company. Sadly, I can't speak to the quality of these as I've never used them. https://www.motorcycleledlights.com...mV_Nxlcm2ysCzYPBa2ON36TzxjpMDYCzkgBoCTirw_wcB

Of course, if you want a truly custom set on the cheap, you can always invest in waterproof LED strips and some epoxy. This would get you a truly unique setup, but I wouldn't trust those anywhere near my hot components... of course, if you want truly fancy you could hook those up to an arduino for a custom lightshow if you're feeling froggy.

Truth is, there are a TON of options out there. Whichever way you decide, I hope you post pics!
