Saw these mentioned on someone elses post. I googled them but came up with some weird non-relevant results. Anyone know where i can find these for an 08 600rr?

I ordered the red third eye through tripageled.com and works great, looks even better. Easy install, unplug the old bulb and plug in the new leds. good to go

^^ Yep. Any red facing light is "impersonating an emergency vehicle" and can carry a hefty fine. Any other color is fine though. Not to mention, they really don't enforce crap in NM (well, Las Cruces anyway). I remember when I was in high school, I have blue (and i mean dark BLUE) turn signals for about 2 years. Even had cops directly across the intersection from me and was never pulled over nor hassled for it. Just depends on where you live really.

I just want ones to match my HID's (so, regular white LED's, not the new "warm" white LED's Honda uses)

I think in FL it is forward facing red/blues as a no no.

In NJ its illegal to have ANY color lights on your vehicle other than white or yellow. Anything else is a distraction... no neons in or outside the car, or under, no purple HID's, no windshield washer LEDs... i think you get my point...

I don't think that's completely true - you can have red facing the rear as well. I also looked at the law and there is some disambiguity with the law, where if you have lights facing downward (ground effects) that can't be seen when looking head on at the vehicle they are supposedly legal. But cops in NJ are almost always jerks and don't know the specific law so better safe than sorry.

Keep the LEDs for parking lots :-)

In Oklahoma, you can have ANY color you want, as long as it cannot be seen from either the front, or the rear. From the side is fine. Now... how that's "interpreted", I'm sure, will be based on the mood of the cop that day. However, green, white, and yellow are fine from any side. Red is fine from the rear.

I was under the impression that in NC blue or red lights were illegal but after some looking and asking they are completely legal as long as they arent flashing while the vehicle is moving. So I can ride all night with red third eye or bike glowin as red as I want.

i am still looking for PA law on what colors you can have but in the lighting section in the vehical code i found this i think its any color you want?

2002 Amendment. Act 229 added section 4309. See section 21 of Act 229 in the appendix to this
title for special provisions relating to promulgation of guidelines to implement Act 229.
§ 4310. Motorcycle lighting.
Auxiliary lighting may be added to a motorcycle to protect the driver, including blue dot
illumination, standard bulb running lights and light-emitting diode (LED) pods and strips.

like you said as long as it cant be seen from the front or rear.

if you know oklahoma like i do .. the cops there are dirty, militant, pigglets, who will stop at nothing to pull your bike apart searching for some illegal substances..

especially on i-40
