@larrythelookout Cheers man, a friend and I swapped bikes during a ride so I got to follow my own bike, which was strange, but I did notice the tail and brake lights, indicators too for that matter, were not nearly as bright as I would like.
Thought about going back to normal bulbs but then caught myself and replaced that thought with "MORE LEDs!"
Hi man, thanks for the comment. Yea, I'm very happy with the lights and am finding it hard to think what else I can do now ...
As for helmet lights, there are such things available, wireless ones even that light up bright when you put the brakes on. They cost alot tho, about $60 or so.
I'd also not want things attached to the helmet. As you're sliding along the ground on your head, the less things to make your helmet suddenly grab onto the ground and thus snap your head back the better.
lol, i always seem to damage one thing while working on another :-/ Nice strip lights at the rear, im wondering how'd it'd look on the back of my rear seat..... will the led madness ever cease, my wallet cant take this mate...! And still i have to ask..... where from?
iv put in the led cluster bulb in the brake light on my XRV.. it sure makes a differance.. nice vid

think the rear and front LED's are an improvement in visibility - enjoyed the 'how to' with both uploads.
Have you though of helmet lodged LED's as well? Unsure how you could power that (and for it to be hassle free - eg little solar panels).
