LED Signals - Flasher or Lead EQ?

[desertw0lf]

For those of you that have converted to LED front and rear signals/tail light did you use a load equalizer, or is there an LED FLasher Relay out there that would actually work on my 07 R3 Classic to avoid having to wire in Load Equalizers?

If Load EQ is not avoidable, do I have to wire one into each signal?

I have also read somewhere that switching to LED lights can screw up indicator "idiot" light, or the lights will not work unless you pull the turn singal "indicator" light and replace it with an LED. Any truth to this?


Thanks. Going to be installing Radiantz flex tail/LED integrated light, and wrapping amber Flex lights around the front fork tubes to use as signals. I was hoping to avoid using load equalizers and go straight to a flasher.

Edit: I see they sell THIS relay in the UK that works and is what I want, but I cannot find it in the US as of yet .. DUAL LOAD L E D Flasher Relay Unique Flash Rate Fix New Specification For Triumph T2500531

I used Kury load equalizers

I think you need an equalizer for the front and another for the rear.
I opted to switch mine out for the kuryakyn small silver bullets but the halogen ones as they look exactly the same as the led ones except no equaliser is needed and they are very bright . I think they are great
I avoided the led because i didnt want to have to worry about finding space for the eqaulizers and also equalizers tend to get rather hot so u have to be careful not to mount them next to other wiring that it could melt.

I'm sure if you ask, someone in the UK would send you one over.
