Will these be ok for a UK spec Road Glide Special 2019 Steve? The front blinkers are just a bulb with orange covers and they only blink ie they don’t stay on as white running lights and blink yellow in your video. Thanks
I had the dealer install it for me. The dealer blames the "aftermarket" accessory for causing the green turn signal indicators in the dash to blink more rapidly. Are others having the same issue or it's normal blink rate for everyone?
I would like to know what sort of plug do you have covering your fairing mirror hole? It looks great. Where can I get one since I have installer mirror now on my handlebars.
Any chance all your lights you have going for HD will eventually be for Indian Chieftain/Road Master/Challenger? Custom Dynamic is slipping on cornering the market on them, AdvanBlack should Jump on it. Look at the hard lowers, signal lights, fairing vent and so on just like everyone has for HD.
@@Potatohead55 yes, I like them. I'm just waiting to see if they release another version. If not maybe I can make a cover for the backside out of some thin PVC or something similar.
@@bobbydavis7098 I installed the switchback lights Monday afternoon did a 100 mile ride and I can't tell any difference in wind coming through. I don't think rain will be an issue either because we already have a solid back plate inside the lower fairing. The lights are super bright. I took the bike to the Harley dealer for service Tuesday. I just happened to be standing at the service bay entrance door when I noticed several technicians were standing around while the technician working on my bike was demonstrating the lights. They were all laughing and talking about how bright the lights are. This white shell really stands out on my black bike. I bought them for safety first and I think they will be attention getter going down the road. They are super easy to install or uninstall on my 2020 Electra Glide. This weekend will be a good indicator if I am going to get ribbed about these lights. I am signed up for motorman advance driving course in Port Richy, FL.
Hey man thanks for the video. Any chance these are coming out in an led style light vs the plasma appearance? Also would the extra wiring hide well on a road king special? No front fairing to tuck everything away...
The smoked lens shows more of each induvial LED.. We took extra time to give ours the diffused look so you wouldn't see each LED...however the smoked ones will show them if thats what you are looking for. There is really no rom to hide the wiring for a road king and if your turn signals are bar mounted these wont work at all.
Hi Steve, thank you for your support on information. My situation is I have Ciro3d windshield trim, I have LED bulbs in the factory turn signals I purchase from Harley Davidson and added the AdvanBlack switch back in my lowers. When I turn on the switch all lights work fine, to include running lights. When I start the bike up all lights goes out, but if I activate the turn signals they all work, while the bike is running and I cancel the turn signals the lights go back to blackout with no running lights. Help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@assassin.cb1317 I’m curious if you got this issue resolved. I don’t have the windshield trim, but do have the Harley LED turn signals and I’m planning to install my AdvanBlack lower fairings tomorrow with these switchback LED lights.
@@assassin.cb1317 That's great to hear. Glad you found a solution. I thought you were already running LED lights though? I'm still working on my install with my bike on a jack so I haven't tried starting my bike yet to test the issue you were facing. I'm putting the Advanblack Dominator fender on, stretched saddlebags and side covers, lower fairing, speakers in the bags and lowers, and most likely relocating my Legends suspension canistors, so it's taking me a loooooong time to do all this work. I'm nearing the end though and my next step is to remove the fairing so I can run the Switchback LED light cord up there.

Just got these lights, and plugged them in to test first, Turned the switch on, the lights came on, and then went out, along with the front and rear lights of the bike. Tried the directional lights, nothing works on the bike or the LEDs. Unplugged the LEDs, and the bike lights work again. Anyone got any thoughts? Called and left 2 messages at Advanblack, no reply yet.
Update - found out that these lights will not work on my bike, because I still have the stock incandescent bulbs in the directionals. The will only work if you have LED directionals.
I've had these lights for years with the same issue. I just gave up, lol. Now that I know I need a load equalizer. I will attempt this again. Thank you
As I explained in the video the extra wire is for the road glide fairings...they attach up near the top of the fairing. If you want to use dielectric grease, you cam. We do not provide it.
Thx for reiterating why. I helped a buddy install in a RGS, and there Is still a ton of extra wire to deal with. You ever seen or heard of dielectric causing issues?
@@rjdavis947 One could always cut and splice to remove unwanted wire. I think they're trying to keep cost down by not making different versions for SG&RG. The extra wire might be useful for folk's that want to get more creative with wire placement. Just my thoughts.
@@bobbydavis7098 I hear you, and much prefer your response over my original, thank you. I did watch and listen to video. There is a lot of extra wiring, even For the RG. And my question about the dielectric was to confirm it was acceptable, as we used it during our install.
OK, it fits the batwing fairing and that stupid and fugly “shark nose” fairing (which looks like a big microwave oven). But what about the Road King for those of us who don’t want a fairing? I put the AdvanBlack lower on my 2019 Road King and I’m interested in these LED lights.
Your road king needs to have the bullet turn signals on the side of the forks like the SG has and not be up on the handlebars. If the blinkers are on the handlebars there will be no way to plug them in.
I bought and installed these myself because of this video. Thank you so much. They are fantastic
Glad to help!!
Just ordered your bags and side flares now I gotta get these...
You did a video on what the extra parts that come with it are for. I can’t find it. If you can can you post a link.
Awesome stuff Steve. Thanks for the video.
You bet

Hey Steve! I have liquid cooling with my lowers, will I still be able to add these switchback flares?????
Thanks
yes they are compatible

And bam, the lower fairings you bought to provide some wind and rain deflection are defeated by a pass through grill on these otherwise nice light's.
Thanks Bobby, I wish I had noticed that before I placed my order. I may return them and wait on the solid. Too quick on the order button. Frustrated

@@Potatohead55 Nice, thank you for the update!
Great vid Steve. Thanks. Notice the banner advertisement behind you was pixelated out. Need I ask?
just in the part where I used an old video to show how to remove the rg fairing...saved me about 4 hours of work doing it again ;)
Would the turn signal connectors also work the same for a Road King since it doesn't have a fairing?

@@clphillips4 yes the issue has been resolved, I had to install all LED lights, then everything worked fine. Thanks for asking.
With all lights being LED’s the lights work fine.

You do not have any list for the tri glide of any year.

Why sooooooo much extra wire? Why don’t you suggest dielectric grease?

Steve will these work if I already have the custom dynamics turn signals on my windshield tapped in???
Yes, everything is "inline" on the wiring so just remove one side of the CD lights and plug in these and then plug the CD's back in
I would have just used a zip tie and put all the slack behind the cover on the lower fairing, and save the taking apart the batwing.
Will these also work on a 2014 road king that I added lower fairings
unfortunately they will not work on road king models
You have a link to these Steve? I can’t seem to find them on the website.
