I love the hyper lites brake lighs and have had them on several bikes. ANYONE ever install them on a 2V Norge without any problems or special electrical challenges?

Raven, FYI - Contact the company and they will replace free of charge. I had the same issue even out of warranty they stand behind their product. Thanks for the info.I removed them from my 4V Norge shortly after I bought it. They worked fine but many of the LEDs were burnt out and it bugged me. They were tapped into the tail light wires and didn't seem to cause any issues.

remember what color wire or if it had anything other than just spliced in? *thanks... Mine is going around the lic plate also,.There were on the bike when I bought it. If memory serves me well, they were tapped into the wires under the rear of the seat kinda on top of the fender.
Thanks but I wq hoping to connect via splicing into one of these wires behind the plug connection.I opened the original tail light of my Norge 8V. There are two shells sealed together with resin, pay attention if you want open it. Internally there is a circuit without CAN termination, but a simple circuit with a transistor that increase the current into LEDs when stop is pressed. I recovered the schematic and made some modification in red to increase the light. The best is replace the LEDs with more moderns, but I didn't have at the moment.

Thanks Scott - I think I also need to install a diode or two? - to get it to flash? Do I use one or two diodes as there are two lines separate from ground. *Positaps thanks! Here is what it looks like attached now. Lighting up but not flashing as it should. I believe I need to add a Diode, but to which or both wires is my understanding? I did use quick connectors of a flat kind not as good as posi-taps.Although I cringe at modifications to OEM wiring looms, sometimes there just is no way around doing so.
This being said, I invite you to consider using a micro Positap on the BRAKELIGHT SIDE of the wiring loom, thereby preserving the integrity of the stock OEM main loom.
Point to consider…
Good Luck!
Agree Scott. Every time I see those I cringe!I can tell you that the connectors you used are one of if not the worst quality ones out there. I'm sorry but they truly are.
