They do want, and have ALOT TO GAIN ($$$) FOR FREE, by having a 650 out do, the competitors, and have higher output bragging rights. On Saturday, August 2, 2014 6:36 PM, "Martin Earl mjearl4@...

(or did they match the wiring/bulb ok there) <><><><><> <><><><><><> Mark,   I forgot to answer your question about the brakelight.   I don't know of a problem with the wiring, voltage or bulb.  To change the wiring would be a significant operation as it would include the bar mounted switch at the right grip and the rear switch near the right footpeg.  Doesn't seem like it would be worth the trouble if there isn't a problem.   Are you having concerns about your brake/tail light?   I changed my brake/tail light to an LED setup that used to be available from Dual Star.  It is knock you down bright.  I don't hear anything about Dual Star anymore and I'll guess because they had lots of customer response issues folks stopped using them.  Maybe Fred has a similar item.  They were never cheap but they were worth every penny in my opinion.   Best, Jeff Saline The Beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota 75 R90/6, 03 KLR650 . . . . .       ____________________________________________________________ Fast, Secure, NetZero 4G Mobile Broadband.
