The LED's come in a bank of 50 per unit. It's just a case of wiring them up. The bodywork was already modified.

Very very nice.  That whole bike looks sweet, from looking at your avatar over there.  Any larger pics of your ride?

Sean, those are the same LED's that Lev installed? They look great with the rear treatment you did a while back...very professional looking.

Looks great and seems like it would be nice and bright.  It looks like the leds are exposed ... are they?  If so, how did you handle weatherproofing?  Any details on circuits/parts/construction?

P.S. nice remus can in the other thread too, those aprilia style double exits look racy.

The LED's are sealed in the unit, totally waterproof. You'd have to ask Lev about the wiring/connections, etc. I dont know what he did, but it works brilliantly, and looks great. Yeah Pablo, they're the same units as Lev used, without being mounted behind the perspex.

Thats looks absolutley superb! Possible the best looking set up I have see on a GS500. Honestly, the craftsman ship is flawless, at least from a photo standpoint. Nice work. I wish that were OEM.

Sean had already done the bodywork to get dual circular lights before and was running simple incandescent bulbs (same lights as the latest tail posted, with the silver plate holding the twin red circles of light, anyone remember that one?). Now with the addition of the LED's it looks positively OEM stunning.

If you don't feel up to the hard work of fabricating your own LED lights, and live in the UK/Europe, take a look at http://www.aceparts.com
