LED BLUE LIGHTS AND THE LAW ... NOW WITH PICS

[ice-cycle]

Given that many American states are not very big  

and a rider can cross three or four in an easy day's ride,

and the laws obviously vary wildly from one state to the other,

how can you ever figure out what the law is?

Equipment type laws are generally enforced in your home state.  For example, very dark tint on a Florida car is OK in Minnesota.

If you look closely at the package the lights came in, you will likely see fine print that says these lights are for use on show or display vehicles. Your motorcycle comes with approved lighting from the factory. Altering or adding lights of different colors is illegal. Oklahoma law allows for red or amber lights visible from the rear and white or amber from the front. Would I write you a ticket? Probably not. Some of these lights look good, just not while riding around. Good luck.

They don't look any bluer than the headlights on all the ricers around here.

Worst you could probably get is a "compliance" ticket. Like a burned out tail light. Fix it and it goes away.

Blue lights on a KLR huh.

Uhhh, BTW:, It's a Strom.

Attempting to be conspicuous is a waste of time and effort.People pull out in front of dump trucks every day and they're big,noisy and hard to miss.You're better off learning avoidance techniques.Unless you enjoy the pretty lights and using the visibility thing as an excuse.

Careful with this kind of advice.  Not every state has something like this.  VA will allow you to comply with law (CWL) for things such as no OL or registration in possession.  There is nothing in the law that allows you to fix something such as a light/equipment issue then expect it to be dismissed.  Not every state is the same.

I was thinking the same thing, but I figured I'd be wasting my breath.

You breathe with your fingers?

Why else would they be in my nose?  Duh!

Do both.
