    91 K75RT Replacing tail and brake light with LED

    I'm thinking of replacing my tail light and brake light with red LEDs on my 1991 K75RT. The question is can I get a simple replacement bulb or will I have to add a resistor? I got the impression that some are simply plug and play. Has anyone done this and what LED lights were used?

    I was thinking of some sort of brake light enhancement for better visibility on my 09F800gs. I have been looking around and the usual places haven't seem to have done it for my bike. I would just as soon have a direct replacement for what is there but if the mounting was neat I could go with an...
