Smaller Euro LED Brake Light Kit

[GTM®]

For those interested in making their 21-current E5 V7/9 brake light look like the smaller Euro version, I now can sell the kit to convert it completely, including the brake light itself and LED turns. Link below for both. Just a FYI.

I got the new parts from Todd and it was a simple swap out.
The light is more compact and you will have a few screws left over from the larger light assembly so don’t sweat it.
Looks great now, that huge light just seemed out of place.

I have the classic halogen lights on my V7 III 2021 , i was wondering if the "huge" led light fit the other mud guards that was not supposed to take the led lights.

This makes no sense to me. Can you post a photo of your brake light? 2021 should be a E5 850.

It is not. Mine it's the last of his kind ( January 2021).

That set up is integrated into the rear fender, so there's nothing you can easily do to swap it.

I swapped the indicators out ASAP after I found out they were plug and play. Not sure why we get the 80s Honda Ascot indicators here in the US... As stupid as it sounds, it has a transformative effect on the overall appearance of the bike.

Installation note: to replace the front indicators, I had to remove my headlight along with the back panel on the dash. The indicator wires were zip-tied together inside of the panel, which prevented you from pulling the wires out enough to get to the connectors (which is all you have to do on the rear). Also, there are tabs on the Euro indicators that fit perfectly in the mounts on the rear, but give resistance on the front spacers.

That looks really clean! Personally, though, I have no issues with the stock Hella unit. IMO, the more brake light I'm throwing backward, the better. It does look like there are LEDs in the middle to compensate for the decreased diameter, though. Is there a difference in overall output?

D.O.T. stipulates minimum surface area of the lens.

It was the same kind of stupid policies that resulted in the Stelvios coming with those horrible turn signals in the mirrors B.S. instead of the European style turn signals, which most of us chaged over to the Euro kind anyway. The D.O.T. said the signal was too close to the headlight. Go figure. The D.O.T. is a P.I.T.A.! Those mirrors with signals truly suck!

So ridiculous... Meanwhile we have AAA battery LED mini-flashlights that outshine massive, D-cell Maglites of yesteryear. Gotta love the alphabet agencies and their infinite wisdom!

So far my wife has only ridden the it in the daytime so I haven’t yet had the opportunity to ride behind the Guzzi at night. I can say it is bright enough during the daytime.

Good to know! Report back after you've seen it at night, if you don't mind.
