Gottagetone Posted February 13, 2015 Author Posted February 13, 2015 Just pulled it all apart and think I can make this happen, thank for your help and pics. What about the brake light, not sure if you can just replace the relay to make that work? Thinking about a brake bar with the LED light bolts to light up the license plate.
docc Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Looking forward to seeing what you'll come up with. Saw these decelerometer brake lights that are fitted to the (US size) license plate frame: http://vololights.com/
Gottagetone Posted February 13, 2015 Author Posted February 13, 2015 Those look kinda cool. I am thinking about doing something similar to Waspp's setup except I want to put the plate up under the seat rather than have it hang below the brake light. I found a single LED that I can mount under the seat area to light up the plate and stay legal. I think this will look cleaner and those pesky toll road cameras won't be able to see it... . In March here in Texas they are doing away with inspection stickers, you will still have to have an inspection done as it will be required to get your yearly registration sticker. I hope to have this setup ready to go when the law changes. Right now my inspection sticker has to be visible from an officers point of view while moving.
waspp Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 The brake light functions just fine you don't need anything to make it work. Not sure what the led is but it has a brake light built in.
Gottagetone Posted February 14, 2015 Author Posted February 14, 2015 Good to know, thought you needed something to change the full power like the turn indicators. Revival has a dual element circuit for $7 - http://revivalcycles.com/collections/for-your-ride-electrical-components/products/led-dual-element-circuit or there is this http://revivalcycles.com/collections/for-your-ride-electrical-components/products/motogadget-m-stop which will create a flashing effect when braking which I kinda like.

Cool! Make sure to post up pics when you're done... I'll take a pic of my Aprilia brake set-up...
Rhino1 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 This is what I'm working with: And I plan to use a small, Bullet-type LED for the plate light...
Gottagetone Posted February 15, 2015 Author Posted February 15, 2015 Nice work, very similar to what I am thinking about fabbing up.
