  • clear tail light

    just got the clear tail light with the integrated turn signals in it, bee stinger type and i gotta say i like it. i zip-tied my license plate to the back and drilled a hole in the plastic under the seat for the license plate light. all in all, it looks pretty good. i just sanded down the plastic to match the back plastics. not a bad look on a kat. just wanted to share my excitement with the rest of you kat lovers

    Always wanted to use that one.
    "Courage is not reckless abandon, or bravery in the absence of fear. It is the knowledge of fear, the wisdom to know the costs of failure, the prudence to minimize those costs, and, in so doing, courage is the mastery of fear. Courage without fear is lunacy."

            How do you wire it up???? Just got mine and will work on it Saturday, but what wires go to what? Sure I can figure it out if I have a Few BEERS and look at it long enough, but some quick details would be helpful!!!!

                          Go to Clear Alternatives web site , the wiring info for the unit is there some place
                          If I remember from mine , it uses the same ground for tail /brake and signal
                          Ground is ground

                            so basically the signals are grounded through the brake light? All ya have to do is hook up the 2 single wires for the signals to the power source from the OEM wiring harness???

                              I think that is the way
                              I can check for sure in a couple months when mine comes out of storage
                              I tried looking at CA site but all links are dead????
                              Take a picture of the LED board and post , may refresh my memory better

                              found this and I was right
                              Got a tweaked piece of plastic? Some roughed up paint? Here's the place to get some tips on repairing your Suzuki Katana.


                              SO just use the + wire from the bike signal harness to the board (it grounds itself form the brake and tail light circuit)
                              The + should be the solid color wire (the - will have a white strip or dots )
