I just got the crown tail light installed last nite. Thanks again for the video. My gray 21 RG had the same red locktite overuse on the left side bullet nut. My paws got skinned up but I survived. Awesome videos. Keep up the great informative videos!
I enjoy your videos and like I have told you before I usually don't work on HD's except on my nieces 2011 CVO but work whole bunch on a 97 Yamaha Royal Star and a 2016 BMW R1200GS adventure. I purchased a set of thread chasers because the previous owner of my BMW used red locktite when not needed. The thread chasers work well and I am very attentive to what I should use on a fastener before finishing what I am doing to the bike. You are one of the better you tubers who show you how to install accessories or upgrades.
Thanks Manuel! Yeah I have a set of thread chasers because of this but I know its going to be a bad day when I get those out lol with it just being the one bolt I got it scraped out pretty quick but man what a pain in the rear. Thanks for checking out the videos man, its much appreciated!
I have a skinny 17 year old that I made get up in there and take the reflector off. Saved me a lot of time and cuss words. I'll use him again when I get this light.
THANK YOU!!!! I was looking for something that flashes to bring attention to me stopping. Wished these had some sort of actual mounting points besides 3M tape; live in Hawaii and the roads as well as salt air throughout the year does not bode well with tape mounts. Was looking for something where I don't have to get rid of the existing turn signals as I bought the Ciro super bright LED turn lights. Very informative sir, thanks again....
You're most welcome! I'm glad I could assist you in your search for attention-grabbing signaling options. I understand your concern about the 3M tape mounts, especially considering the challenging road conditions and salt air in Hawaii. It's always beneficial to have more secure mounting points. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of anything would secure this particular light better than the tape provided. I would just keep an eye on it. I'm grateful that you found the video informative, and I appreciate your kind words. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out. Good luck with your search, and I hope you find the perfect solution for your needs!
Thanks Steve. While I can't use this particular light on my '13 FLTRU, I can appreciate the quality of the product and the simplicity of the installation. And sadly, I have also come across red loctite where it had no reason to be. Very frustrating.
Hey man..thanks for checking it out anyway..much appreciated. I hope they start making more parts for the 13 and older bikes too...I think it has a lot to do with the bikes needing load resistors to use LED stuff and the 14 ups dont...Im not sure..just a guess but I wish they had more stuff for the older models. And yeah...screw red loktite man lol this one got the better of me for sure! haha
@@sikbaggers Couple quick questions on that subject if you don’t mind. 1. Do I need to remove the ignition if so why? 2. Do I need to roll the inner faring forward to access the hole in the handle bar? Thanks in advance. Slim
@@jamespeppard9162 if its on a 2014 and newer you don't need to remove the ignition, you can roll the fairing forward to access the 2 clamps that hold your bars on just by removing the ignition panel, 2 screws, one on each side. There are tabs at the top so pull down and at an angle to come from under the ignition and yes you will need o get to the hole under your bars to access the wires.
Thank you for the kind words Scott! So sorry to be so late on comments too..been trying to catch up on everything this weekend. Take care and ride safe my friend.
Great video brother gonna go order me today an put that on my 14 street glide it is plug an play for that year model correct an thanks again keep up the good work god bless
Lol you're funny, I went through all that and it was a pain to get one of the bolts off as well because of just a little red loctite. All this to remove that ugly reflector. Now you do a video on this nice light and I'm already hesitant just because of that one pain in the butt bolt lol
Off to to the website again. You got me this time when you said " A Much Needed Light' my brain repeated and said Yes...umm Much needed light😶 lol. I seriously need help as I am addicted to led lights and with Ciro having the 4 Easy Payments option is NOT helping me at all haha . Next will be the saddlebag hinge lights! Just being honest
Great question Darrell...The magic box from CD works by sending burst signals to the lights..so basically on/off very fast. So lights like these or any sequential turn signal will not work with the brake box. So you will need to daisy chain these in before the brake box. If you plug this in after the brake box it will send the on/off signals to the light and it would just repeat the first milisecond of its flash pattern until the box stopped sending the signal and just stays on. Same with sequential turn signals. So to avoid this and have the best of both worlds just simply plug this in before the brake box right at the start of your daisy chain. This way the brake box send its signals to all of your lights in the rear except this so they can all flash and this one has a signal without the brake box and it does its own thing and glashes whatever pattern you choose. I hope this helps...any questions please let me know.
I have not personally but you are the second one to comment saying the same thing...its also cold here and im not kicking the bike on very often so ill check it
This light is intended to be installed on the OEM wish bone style turn signals and not the CVO...The CVO model will not have the proper wire harness for this light.
Sorry I just saw this...im slacking on comments...We just picked up everything at the HD dealership...told them what we were doing and the parts guy came out with everything we needed. Decent priced too...cheaper than I thought it would be from HD anyway
I have a shit load of extra lights on my Harley that a previous owner put on it, if I keep the bike I'm gonna take all that Christmas tree shit off and trash it, head light, tail light, turn signal lights, are all the bike needs to pass DOT inspection ")
there is a fine line of having too much and healing other see you. And its certainly your bike....do with it as you wish. You wont find any arguments here
When you have big hand and arms you call your skinny friend for help....lmao...Im lucky my brother has skinny arms and hands so I get him to do the tight spots...
It the Milwalkee M12 here...this one doesnt come with the battery or charger just getting you link to it...i get all my M12 stuff from Home Depot usually. This ratchet is the number one most used tool I own for working on harleys...you wont regret it. www.amazon.com/Milwaukee-2457-20-Cordless-Sub-Compact-Variable/dp/B006CSRBTC
Please stop making videos about Ciro products. Every time I watch your videos my pocketbook gets a little bit lighter. All joking aside great video. As to the bolts on the rear light assembly. I took mine off to take the deflector off and same problem too much loctite on the threads I could barely get them out, both bolts. I feel your pain.
Hey thanks Steve..yeah that one was a booger...ive had them kind of tight but man that one fought me to the end. Thanks for checking it out man..much appreciated.
Curious why in the helkl your watching led light videos then...there are literally millions of motorcycle videos on youtube and this is the one you choose? neat.
How did the on or off help those who got rear ended? There is always room for improvement when it comes to lighting and safety. I disagree with your opinion but thank you for checking out the video. Take care and ride safe.
I like you, but I don't like CIRO. I watched MotoBlonde install black caps on the aluminum fasteners on her engine, and then I saw there were two kits for my 16 PSBOCVO, so I asked them what does the 1st kit cover, and the reply i got was to hit the "instructions" button and when I did, the instructions say "not all locations illustrated" so I got bent out of shape real quick and chewed that poor lady out for pushing a product that can't and won't give me a straight answer, and then they say they have been trying to email me- who tries to Email? You either do it or you don't, so obviously someone there thinks it's real funny to be sarcastic with the public who does not know what to buy and can't get an answer and the company does not care to answer, because it's making enough money, it does not need customer satisfaction. Again, I think your presentations are better than other tubers who think they are actors, sometimes you like to feel like you're in the garage talking shop with an expert, and not sitting down for a show. You know? Thanks, but I will never be using any CIRO product, ever.
Hey Mark sorry you had that experience with ciro support man..I really dig the products they have and have haven't had any issues I guess with anything...I did look over what you were talking about as the instructions for the twin cam do state that not all locations are pictured. I used those caps on my Road glide build...I shot a video last year on those and if I remember correctly I had enough to cover all the locations that were pictured and had a few left over of each size. I do know this though...I did a cheapo cap set from amazon on the SG build and I needed to order 2 sets to cover everything I wanted to cover and had a lot of crap left over that wouldn't fit anything at all. Now they weren't nearly as thick or nice as the ciro ones I used on the RG...but I ended up getting a black set of cheapos to fill in all the extra stuff I wanted covered on the bike..not just around the engine but front fork legs, brake calipers etc and then I had a bunch left over...which is nice because a lot of them needed siliconed on so they would stay put...They come off easily enough if I have to do work on the bike but the pliers chew up the chrome so having extras is always nice. I guess what I wanted to say was buy 2 kits no matter where you get them from lol...youll have enough and extras which you will probably end up needing at some point down the road. I hope that helps buddy...be safe
@@sikbaggers It doesn't help me at all, and you are not responsible, so there is nothing you can do, but thanks for replying and providing your info, but buying extra and having extra stuff laying around is not what Im after. If CIRO cannot answer a simple question then they simply ain't gettin my business. I have a lot of trouble on UA-cam asking questions, because it seems no one alive knows how to answer a question.

I just the Ciro light on my bike last Thursday after watching your vid, thank you. I flip the wrench upwards so you can get more cranks on the bolts.
Yep..shorty wrench and flip it...works great..still sucks with big hands though lol glad you got it on!

Like the advice with the videos. Would like to see a video on installing heated handgrips on a street glide.
the next time I get one in im shooting the video..I have installed them a few times and just didnt have time to shoot it.

Just being honest
Hey Steve, great videos. Do you know if the Crown Tail Light fits with the Lighted License Plate Frame that Ciro just came out with a few weeks ago?
hhmm great question..let me check into it! Ort just buzz ciro...they are super knowledgeable about their parts..they should know if it does or not
Could you show how to make some of the accessory lights be brake only?
Im sure there is a way by deleting wires but ciros lights come plug and play so the harnesses are pre wired. Not sure I would start cutting wires.
How well does this work with the custom dynamics flash module?
Great question Darrell...The magic box from CD works by sending burst signals to the lights..so basically on/off very fast. So lights like these or any sequential turn signal will not work with the brake box. So you will need to daisy chain these in before the brake box.

@@sikbaggers Thanks for the info. Love watching your videos keep up the great installs and content.
I installed this light a couple of weeks ago. Every couple of days l have to open app to reset my settings. Have you experienced this
I have not personally but you are the second one to comment saying the same thing...its also cold here and im not kicking the bike on very often so ill check it
Nice video, THX
Thank you!
Where do you get that lit rear Fender tip
Thats just the OEM tri bar light that comes on street glides and road glides.
Can you show how Install that product on a Harley CVO please
This light is intended to be installed on the OEM wish bone style turn signals and not the CVO...The CVO model will not have the proper wire harness for this light.
Do they make this for CVO models? Fltres3
No this lights fits over the wishbone tail light on a standard fender. The CVO fender doesn't have this tail light.
Does this work on a 2006 street glide
Sorry I just saw this...im slacking on comments...We just picked up everything at the HD dealership...told them what we were doing and the parts guy came out with everything we needed. Decent priced too...cheaper than I thought it would be from HD anyway
Thanks Sir
Youre welcome terry!
