I like the spinning LED's. They go well with my carbon fiber wing, neon undertail lighting, chrome seat, zebra fur tank, ultra low profile tires, and "Type R" handlebar.  :nana:

Basically, when did motorsports turn so cheesy?  :dunno:

:nono: Im in the import scene and I dont even want to catch any flames about "ricing" ANYTHING out. When I build hondas I use stickly JDM products and only the best parts such as Spoon CF hoods, mugen wheels, kaiten lightwieght flywheels, black housing jdm headlights and yokohama advan tires just to name a few, ABSOLUTELY NO APC crap. I'm the biggest anti-rice guy in east tennessee. I'm also a proud member of JDMcivic.com, SUPRAforums.com, ClubRSX, Silviaforums.com, and 240sx forums. When I went down to Myrtle Beach Bike week last year I saw several tricked out crotch rockets down there with them. I thought they looked good so I'm trying to find one. I hardly know much about bikes, but i'm in the process as of now since I own one. But when it comes to Imports, (especially hondas), Im the guy to talk to. Ok now that thats off my chest back to the spinning leds, where can I get one? how much are they?

Now, I'm not saying that import tuners are terrible. I myself own an Integra GSR, which I play around with. But the fact of the matter is, I look around when I'm driving, and there is some major 4 wheel cheesyness rolling around.

Title: flashing
Post by: richard on March 23, 2004, 03:55:45 PM
All the cop bikes around here have flashing LED tail lights, and it looks kinda cool.  I think spinning would be cooler, though... particularly if you could get it to slowly speed up (or slow down) and eventually go solid.

Now if you could tie it into the speedometer and make it change speeds relative to the speed of the bike while braking, that would be really cool....

it's definitely doable, just probably more trouble than it's worth. =]

GS-R? nice, what mods have you done so far, i'm building an H22a powered EG (92-95) Civic Hatchback this summer. The list goes on and on about parts, I'm looking for about 240 hp at the wheels.

:bs: I had two of these on my Honda and after a couple of weeks they reversed themselves.
They hae a bunch of small LED'd that spin in a circle then reverse spin every three seconds or so then flash on and off when you hit your brakes. Mine started flashing when running and spinning when you hit the brakes. VERY unsafe. You can get them at most bike shops but they are illeagal to run on the street and cost about $25.00 each. I would not waste my money on them if I were you. My dealer took my defective ones back and gave me a refund thank goodness. :bs:

My GSR is pretty close to stock. I put on a custom Borla exhaust, which I got just for the sound (It sounds sweet) an air intake, headers and some stiffer Eibach springs with camber correction. Unfortunately, my poor college kid syndrome prevents me from doing more. That's why I spend my motorsport money on the GS :thumb:

I lived in Miami, FL where every 16 to 20 year old with a car decked it out in all those cosmetic trimmings. It seemed that the thing to do was buy a $1200 POS Civic or Supra and then add a $2000 Miami Option Package (big ass muffler, neon, low rider, chain steering wheel, etc.). In the end, all they had was a $1200 POS with more 'S'. ;)

My riding buddy has a Harley with brake lights that flash when the brakes are applied. When he brakes with the blinker on (how ofter does that happen :roll: ), you can't tell blinker from brake light so you loose the turning information. :dunno:

When the one thing you can never get enough of on a bike is safety, I wouldn't sacrafice even 1 ounce of it for cosmetics.
