Just got my signal and brake light kit in the mail and excited to get it on the bike! You guys did a great job with this video. I have very limited experience and understanding of wiring so it's helpful to see exactly what I'm up against before I start.
@@TSTindustries Hey sorry for the late reply. As I recall, it went on without issue. Just as simple as you show in the video. I took my time and was careful with each step. Increasingly few things in life are this way but you guys did your homework. Been scooting around for a little while now and I really dig these lights. They work well (so far) and really clean up the look of the bike
Very informative video I was all in until I have to cut the tail light connecter off the old tail light. Why doesn’t it come with the connector already on it for the license plate light?
You actually do not have to cut the connector off. That is a suggestion for those that want to retain that particular connection type. Our license plate light comes with the posi tap connectors that are used to connect your license plate light right into any wires agnostic to OE connector housing. You cactuall can connect right into the black and blue wires on the tail light if you want to keep your bike side harness pristine. To answer your question why we do not put OEM style connectors on our license plate light I will have to go into detail of logistics of taking that approach. Some of the components that we manufacture need to stay universal. We offer this license plate light for a vast array of motorcycles, and also other vehicles. We would have to have about a hundred different license plate light SKUs that each sell at different rates. It is impractical for a business to endure this when most end users are already ok with installing with our provided means. From time to time somebody turns up that absolutely has to have an OE connector to go with this kit, and if they ask our customer service guys, most often we can accommodate by supplying a connector and terminals (for those vehicles that we stock connectors for).
@@TSTindustries I appreciate the quick response and the informative reply. I will definitely get in touch with CS. Yeah some of us guys are sticklers. Thanks again for the reply.
@@genewuchner9004 I understand. When I build harnesses on race bikes they get the mission-critical treatment and all connectors are proper, insulated or sealed, with strain relief. In manufacturing we have to contend with certain pressures that sometimes require a compromise. Such is the case in universalizing our license plate light.
@@TSTindustries Thanks for the reply. You sold me. I plan on getting the fender eliminator and the front and rear smoked turn signals. Just in case CS doesn’t have the connector, would you know the exact part I would need?
@@genewuchner9004 they don't have the connectors. They typically come to me for them in the R&D stash, or ask the assembly peeps. I have to review the footage to remind myself what connector this bike uses for lplt
That happens on this bike, kawasaki ninja250r, zx7r, and a few others. Not a very complicated explanation to a person who understands how current flow works, but otherwise a tricky thing to explain concisely. We do have a video that delves a bit more into that phenomenon and shows the installation of our fix for it.
I do believe that Canda charges you duties when the package arrives on your side. We have two Canadian dealers. You can find them through our dealer directory on our website: tstindustries.com/dealers.html -BR
Id like to do a full led signal conversion on my dr650 not exactly sure what id need besides the signals the plug and play diode and relay. Is the any other connectors i would need? Besides those things?
Are you wanting just replacement signal lamps with LED light sources, or the integrated tail light along with the signal lamps? I think discussing this topic with our customer service guys through our website will get you your answers quicker.
Rather than wait over the weekend for one of us to reply it would have been faster for you to go to our website TSTindustries.com and put "license plate light" in the search bar. Took me 10 seconds...but here you go: tstindustries.com/tst-led-low-profile-universal-fit-license-plate-light.html
We cannot help what shipping costs nowadays. All the raw materials and components we ship to us are subject to the same ridiculous rates too. We cannot absorb both sides.

I'd like to hear your experience once you get through the process.

So glad I found this channel I have exact same bike and color scheme
Great! Welcome.
How do you install the Quadrix D Sequential Turn signals to the tail tidy and wiring harness? Since the Quadrix has 2 extra wires on each turn signal?

so what parts do i need if i am doing the fender elimination but not adding any extra leds, just a little unclear?
This thorough video convinced me to go with your product. A little bit unclear on the part where all signals were flashing at the same time.

Not a very complicated explanation to a person who understands how current flow works, but otherwise a tricky thing to explain concisely.

Do I need the extra parts if I don’t go with the turn signals? I just want the integrated tail light?
No all works fine if you aren't adding LED signals
Would their be any duties to ship this to Canada? Do you have any canadian suppliers selling it?

Im a big fan of your products that i have brought for previous bikes, be great if you sorted a better looking headlight option for these bikes to!

AMAZING FROM CORAL SPRINGS FL .❤️❤️
Thank you.
Same my bike DR650SE 2022

Q buen vídeo. La mía es del 2020 negra. Saludos desde Colombia
Sick
Nothing for the 97, damn.
I’ve seen on forums that it fits the 97, they said that the dr was unchanged since 1996. So anything made for 2001+ should fit on a 96+.
Please ship to Canada for more reasonable prices!

$35 isn't horrible, I've seen way worse, like from ProCycle for example.
You can buy from one of their Canadian dealers. That's what I did as shipping from TST was over $100USD. Great product though 👍
