Just got it firing!
I'm having problem installing new LED turn signals for my v7. Should I remove the stock harness or just wire them? I have no clue and know nothing bout wiring but willing to learn.

Remove the turn signal and if you have room to cut the wiring, then it should be fine to cut the wiring then install a new connector that is the same as the one on the new LED turn signal. You may need to install resistor(s) between the new LED signal and the bike's wiring, so don't make anything permanent after checking the result is what you need.
I hate to cut factory wiring. That is always a last resort. If possible get the correct connectors for the new signals.
You would hope that accessories made for a bike would have the right connectors, but...
Cut, solder connector, heat shrink tube.
NO electrical tape !
There was a thread about getting a new Flasher for LED conversions - here somewhere.
Instead of using Resistors to balance the circuit.
No flasher in these bikes. Turn signals controlled by the dash. Also if you must cut, then cut the turn signal leads and splice as suggested, not the harness.
