  • 3rd eye

    Ive seen some bikes out there that have a different color third eye (aka parking light). Anyone know where to find these?

      BTW, I think they may have been correct. It does appear that BLACK is indeed the FASTEST color. R.O.R...R.I.P.M

                Careful using red and blue Escpecially if it has a strobing effet while moving. As for other colors by law on the front of a vehicle can only be white or amber while moving


                I've been waiting for Night Rider to come out for a couple yrs now. Originally it was supposed to be the new Chevy Camero. Opps I guess Chevy sat on their xxses for to long on releasing it to their product line.

                  I was simple really

                  I bought a tribal flame scanner from pep boys for like $14 or so (I can't remember but it was cheap)
                  I took out the 3rd eye from the bike
                  I popped the red lens off the scanner and noticed the LEDs uder the lens were also red...
                  Using a hot knife (heat up the blade of an utilty knife with a torch) I trimmed down the scanner so all that was left was the board and the backing part it was attched to. I did not try to pry the board of the backing because it looked brittle. With all the scanners plastic trimmed away it would almost fit perfect inside the 3rd eye.
                  All I had to do was using the hot knife snip off the screw posts on the inside of the 3rd eye and trim a couple edges to fit it in. Once it was fitted I used GOOP (silicone adheasive) and glued the board into the housing of the 3rd eye. drilled a hole and ran the wires out. Because I had snipped off the screw posts the clear lens also have to be glued back on using a bit of goop, but before I did that I tapeed over the screw holes and filled in the screw holes with goop.
                  then i just reattched it to the bike as normal.
                  for the wiring I simply taped into the oem wiring for the 3rd eye

                            These are huge over on the Repsol forum. They are made by a company called Tripageled.com. They make the KITT light as well as a few other mods like lighted footpegs and a headlight mod called "Krazy eyes." Lots of the Repsol guys mod their bikes with this stuff...must be nice to have a billion dollars to spend on mods...

                            Anyway, you can check it here: http://www.repsolforum.com/forums/sh...hlight=tristan
