RTB looks like a viable alternative to the $80 Kuryakyn unit for half the price.

Looks good, good price...not plug n play is the only difference. Wire it yourself.

Interesting.. Wonder if it will work with LED rear signals..

Cheap enough to give it a try, thanks.

I have the SOS priority plus, easy to wire and a good product. If you use the quick connect clips you will have to give them a little extra squeeze every year or so because they will loosen up and not work properly, I rewired and removed them.

Just got the Kury one from Powersport Superstore for $65.80. Plug & play & works like a charm! Really makes the back of the bike visible.

Re:Alternative to Kury run turn brake 1 Year ago  
I'm new to these, and it sounds like a great product. Basically, this just illuminates your turn signals when you brake, correct?

Also, what is the best way to turn the run-turn-stop lights into LEDs?

You'll either need to change the sockets or wire in the lights, and get a load equalizer or no-load flasher because the LED's don't draw enough to run the flasher at a normal rate

Turns your rear signal lights into brake & running lights, so if you haven't done it already, you need to change the signal lights to red lenses or red bulbs. I also used the flash tab which flashes the brake lights 3 times before staying on. Hopefully, it'll wake up those cagers to the fact you're stopping. Of course, if they're texting............ Btw, I had to use the equalizer that was included in the package to get my signals to flash properly even though I already had a no load flasher.
