I have a Interstate and the tail light in the fender is blanked off. Can I put a tail light from another Valkyrie there?

Forge

Yes. I am running that and my Interstate lights simultaneously. You need to purchase the complete standard brake light assembly and wiring harness. You can plug both tail light assemblies into the main harness at the same time, but you will need to splice 1 wire from the standard harness into your Interstate main harness. It's easy.

Great where is the plug in for it? Where did you splice? Thanks!

I didnt get a harness I just spliced to exsiting wires.

I also added a tail light and put a Radianz LED insert.  My trunk lights were also upgraded with LED from fellow member Bon S.  Rear of bike is now incredibly bright.

THIS be a cursed good upgrade for VISIBILITY.  :cooldude: Mentioned this before but on my P G R missions now I've heard the comment a few times-when O2S is on the brakes now you KNOW O2S is on the brakes!  :2funny: And BonS told me when I called him he had toned the light output down! Do you have the number of the Radianz LED insert handy for me? As always-T I A.  :cooldude: RIDE SAFE.

As I stated BonS did His upgrade and with That upgrade all 4 lights are L E D running lights as it was in the stock configuration but Now and More importantly all 4 of the lights are L E D brake lights too!  :cooldude: The price of His modification includes changing the inner lights on the I/S to a socket that accepts the 2 element L E D. As he splained it to me IF he messes up on the socket change he eats the mess up. Far as What number the replacement is I tried one off the shelf L E D and it needed the resistor in the line Somewhere. The BonS mod IS Plug and Play!  :coolsmiley: RIDE SAFE.

While I am NOT sure if he has pulled the pin I believe if you go to members his phone # might still be there. RIDE SAFE.
