CBR tail light

Cool thanks! I'm definitely getting those. I am still at the planning stages, and a bit negociable, but I would prefer keeping fender and inner fender intact if possible, to allow for putting it all back to original state, even though I doubt it ever will . So I already mocked my future setup where I just slap the cbr light in there and the licence plate on the existing bracket, with just some minor drilling and bending. I'll post pics as I get the project moving. Thanks again!

For anyone who is interested this is how I mounted mine.
Note that I have the shorty mudguard.

Inner 'guard chopped.

Fabricated mounting bracket.

Inner guard, mounting bracket and lamp assembled.

On the bike.

Thank you Mr. Midnight. That is a nice looking set up.

Hello all, me again! I finally got my CBR light last week so I got my project started and being the ADHD that I am, of course I had my calculations wrong and the the minor drilling and bending did not work and led to the more fun anyway sheetmetal cutting. My question however relates to the wiring harness that's now 90% complete, I need to know if I can find the attached splitter terminal anywhere in store, online or through Yamaha? This one on pic is around 11mm wide, is used to split the ground between left and right flasher, seems factory, and way more elegant than the 15-piece-splice unit that I was going to put up myself. I searched Amazon, grote.com, 2 local auto parts stores but to no avail. Thanks!

This link probably isn't much help to you but this is what you should search for.

Very useful, now I know the name and what to search for. What surprises me is the total absence of this thing here in North America!! I have to choose between China and UK, either way I won't have my connecter before February, sucks!

I have a few good used ones if needed. I will also be stocking these (probably in Feb lol). I already stock most of the connectors/pins needed for most places on the bike. Finally got around to sorting them out a few weeks ago. We're currently sorting other connectors, bulbs, sockets, fuses and other electrical misc.

It wouldn't let me load all the pics. Here's the others in case someone is looking for them in the US.

Hello from Quebec City, where spring is finally here, and I'm glad I had all the work done for a first ride yesterday with my new CBR light, love the results. Finally I could not find splitter terminals local so I built/soldered 2 from parts. Next gone are the lollipops, already got new LED ones online, just ran out of time playing with resistors. Thank you all for all your photos and ideas, made the job so much easier. Have a good riding season everyone!

Now you need to add an LED light in-place of the reflector behind the passenger seat.

Try these guys for electrical supplies:

I'm pretty sure Sean sells a complete unit as well.

Indeed we do. Arguably the cleanest and brightest reflector conversion kit!
