Some have installed the K1300S LED taillight on the K1200S.
Yes, I toyed with that idea...until I saw the price of the tail light. )
Did your eyes roll back in your head
There are two tail light bulbs on my '08 and they are 1156s. Single filament. As are the rear turn bulbs.Has anyone here tried replacing their standard tail/brake light with an LED "bulb"? I can buy an 1157 replacement that has multiple LEDs in it however I'm fearful that I'll get the dreaded "light out" notification on my dashboard.
Thoughts? Experiences? Advice?
Even with the HyperLites and the LEDs, someone will say they didn't see me!

The number one reason cited by drivers who run into fire trucks running lights and siren is "I didn't see it."

Also if you need a 1157, here's one that I have in some other bikes. It also is a stop strobe. Hey they're cheep enough to experiment with.

I just installed amber 1156s LEDs in the rear turn signals and have no warning lights or hyperflash. And they are BRIGHT! I'm going to leave the front turns stock for now.
