Nice write up, I'm front 1156 indicators away from being full LED now myself, they really are much more visible than old school bulbs!!
A total worth it mod.
Absolutely, and less power use as well. I have a much bigger margin now to rock both heated grips and heated gloves at th same time, for instance, with everything LED.
The Custom Dynamics 1.8 inch 48-led clusters are great for the indicators, the 24 that are used for turn signals on my two-color ones are plenty and the full 48 in amber should be really good, for people who don't want to have to do all this extra wiring.
Putting LED's in reflectors can have weird outcomes, for instance how my original tail light now looks almost segmented because there are only 26 leds in that "bulb". A flat circle of 48 of them however give a nice uniform shine.
Probably going to have to revisit the stock tail light some way eventually. I'd rather not replace the whole thing, I like how it looks. But, that's an option, get a stock Triumph LED tail light for some other newer bike model (Thunderbird or some such) and retrofit it onto this fender, should be doable.
