Default Touratech led turn signals

Hi to all of you and best wishes from Panama City, Panama. Anyone of you have tried the Led turn ligths from touratech. Do them give you some error in the CAN BUS electronic system of the 1200GS? or they function OK with no errors?
Thanks in advance for your support

Default LED's

efiguer,

como estas? I installed TT LED turn signals, front and rear. They do not affect the CAN BUS system. I have not had any problems with them. There are some photos of my bike on this site 1200GS/Adventure category, check em out. If you have any pics of your bike, share them with us.

I like Panama City.

Adios

kook

The problem with aftermarket LED tail lights for the R1200GS is visibility. My friend Steve, aka (sp?), had some on his bike. They were super bright if I was directly in a line behind him, but if he turned a bit, or I drifted to one side a bit, the lights were so dim that I sometimes couldn't see them at all.

Which isn't to say LED lights couldn't be designed to work as well as incandescent lights. It's just the particular brand Steve used were crap. If you buy LED lights, you might want to confirm that they are not too "directional"...

Hey, Gracias for your replies. I will Think to put these leds to my bike. Kook, is good to know that you visited Panama, is a great place to live and to ride, but be prepared for a very warm and humid weather. Here we can manage that.

Thanks
