With the right tools and guidance, most of the work done on motorcycles can be done by the owner. This is why we put so much effort into filming installation videos.
Hey Bart, love all the videos! I’ve got a full signal kit, front and rear for my GSX-8S, ready to install now. One thing I see all the time on dirt bike channels, is to add dielectric grease to all the connectors whenever you disassemble and reassemble anything. But I’ve never seen you recommend it or use any in these install videos. Just not necessary or is it simply a preference thing on street bikes? This is my first street bike in almost 20 years, so things have changed a lot. Thanks again for all you guys do at TST!
Hey, thank you for the support. We appreciate you. Dielectric grease on those connectors will certainly not hurt anything. However it is messy, and in my experience not necessary. The connectors do experience moisture but typically not direct water contact , at least not constantly. I have worked on some bikes over a decade in the past and then I get access to them again and upon innspection, dielectric grease would have done no additional good for the install. So I opt out of using that stuff on these types of connections. -BR
@@TSTindustries awesome, thanks for the response Bart! I don’t plan on doing a bunch of riding in the rain anyways. So I’ll stick to just keeping them the way they are. Thanks again!
Bought your relay from a place in the UK but my bike has the old two pin design relay for some reason. But at least i know how to take it all apart now 😅
Your bike has a second unused connector coming out of the bundle that leads to your relay. That connector fits our relay. Remove your OE relay, and connect ours into that other one that fots our relay.
I looked extensively on your website to try and find the blue anodized bezels you’ve placed on the TFT display fasteners (as visible from the front of the bike). As I’ve ordered pretty much everything for the signals and crash protection from you guys, at this point. But I can’t seem to find these listed on your site? Are they available? Maybe simply the same ones used on the tail light mounting kit? Thanks Bart 💪🏻
@@kendavis1593 it was an excellent ride my friend. The feeling where trees are whizzing by and youre plowing whoops over and over and your brain just goes into input-output mode.... That is one of the only times my brain rests. All the meanwhile im getting a killer workout. I love it and highly recommend to others.
hey from austria 👋 we have the problem, that the flasher do nothing, with different relays… so i am thinking about, that i order your relay… the shipping coast to austria a not so small 🙈 if it doesnt work, can i send the rely back to you?
Yes, you can send it back but then ypu are paying shipping twice. We have a dealer in the UK called Cregtech. I think he can get you the parts with a much smaller shipping bill
I didn't realize getting under the tank is so easy. Really nice job by suzuki to make me feel like an actual mechanic.

Great job Bart for showing how to disassemble the 8S side panels! Legend! Great products from TST Ind🤙
thank you so much...greets from Germany
You're welcome.
Waiting to see pricing and eta on the tail light. Putting that light back to where it should of been from the factory.
Is there a torque value on that 10 mil tank bolt? Thanks for the video!
M6 screws of that kind are typically 8ft-lb

Hello, will your relay work with sequential led turn signals? Thanks
Absolutely. We offer various sequential turn signals and our relay is completely compatible with them.
