P3 Lights Motorcycle LED - review

Review of LED motorcycle lights purchased from P3lights.com AND photonblaster.com. This is my first video review, so it's a little rough - and the camera doesn't really handle the high intensity of the LEDs all that well, but I think it is clear how bright these LED lights are. Still, I hope this is helpful for anyone looking to add LEDs to their bike. I am not affiliated with any of the product vendors, nor have I been paid for this review. More motorcycle gear reviews coming soon!

Helpful video Brian....cant beat extra safety but one question and one comment...I am not a big fan of the wires being so visible up front (can they be hidden?) and do the front ones provide more light on the road for night driving? Thanks

[brianscrazytalk]

@gambietti thanks for the feedback... It might be possible to do a better job concealing the wires along the fork tube...but there is really no place to run the wires through so that they are completely hidden. The front lights do not provide any additional illumination of the road for the rider - they are just designed to increase your visibility to others on the road.

they are very nice but i wonder if the leo will break your shoes for having them?

Thanks for the comment. These lights are perfectly legal, and I have been in front of police cruisers several times with no issues. Not a concern at all.

Thanks for the comment! These lights are expensive, but worth it IMO. The flicker of the rear running lights is particularly good at getting me noticed, and the brake lights are BRIGHT!

Thanks, Brian. I was never a big fan of the Hyperlights LED flashers and these seem like a much better concept and with more options. Great job in giving the review!

I'd disable the brake flash, people might think you're tapping your brakes when you're not.

can you post a video viewing the lights from a distance away? perhaps a view from a car from 50 feet away.

I've had a set of these on my R1100RT for about two years now and I heartily endorse them. Cars behind me notice it immediately, even on bright summer days (I still watch 'em until they come to a complete stop though), and the enhanced tail light brightness feature makes riding in our winter fog a little less hair-raising.

@chrisolava112066 Becareful about having strobing lights in the US. I've seen some lights that flash quickly and are still legal. However, any lights that flash too quickly that can be considered strobes are illegal in many states because they simulate emergency vehicles. Especially worse is alternating strobing lights.

Also, it depends on the police officer if they want to enforce the USDOT law.
