Before anyone says anything about spending the weekend adding to the bike rather than riding, the weather here was clear and sunny . . . with 20-40 mph winds frequently gusting into the 50s. Mid 60s mph last night.

What is that taillight set up from?
Pretty awsome, would like to get one like it.

It's the stock taillight on the 2009-2010 Nomad.

Actually Doc it doesn't even fit inside the lens. It will sit flush with the housing I think. That's how the other LED's fit in the turn signals.
I don't know if it'll make a difference if you run incandescent bulbs in the signals and LED in the taillight.
Yes there are a lot of leds on that board, but the price is kind'a high. That's why I went with the small round cluster as in the run/turn/brake lights.

lack of a custom fit solution is exactly what drove me to learn how to make my own. Hopefully after my wife and I settle in from our upcoming move, I can make a few for sale. ???

If you're feeling up to the challenge, I bought my LED's from www.superbrightleds.com
