Fixing the WORST thing about the 2024 Harley Davidson Road Glide!!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Today we fix the worst part about my 2024 Harley Davidson Road Glide...
The stock tail lights.
These Custom Dynamics tail lights are a HUGE upgrade visually and offer a much brighter presence from the rear on the road adding to safety and a stand out style!

    Said this before, stock looks so much better, Custom Dynamics need to go back to the drawing board, smoke lens looks great before startup, but those lights leave way to much damage behind!

    I totally get where you’re coming from and agree, if you have no intentions of changing the fender or doing some paint match stuff where you can just have the fender resprayed, I don’t recommend this route unless you’re okay with rough around the edges

    Great to see the options on the 2024 rear, not sure which direction I'm going yet. I will say I had Custom Dynamics LEDs all over my previous SG, loved the plug-n-play and brightness. I even emailed them to try get some sportbike LEDs built (RC-51) and the customer service/tech support was on point. First brand I looked at after getting my 24 home.

    I have the same bike. I also did the Custom Dynamic Taillights. I did a very simple DYI for the holes on the fender. I Got some gorilla duck tape and covered the holes inside the fender. Then I got some white paint on the duck-taped holes looks great. Not even the same color white but because of the angle when looking at it and the small holes, you can't even tell.

    Guess Taste is subjective.. I also don't mind the Stocks... I would like to Smoke them out.. And i thought they were LEDs already so not sure why the need for the resistors. I was under impression that it was needed when going from the older Incandescent lights.. I guess there is a different "power Pull" on the CD lights. Good vid as always !!

    Yeah I was surprised to see a resistor was required as well for the exact reason you layed out. My only uneducated guess would be that the new stock Hd led tail lights have a resistor built in and by removing the stock tail lights the resistor needs to be replaced with this? Not sure though.. thank you for watching!!🙌

    Looks horrible. The lights sit so far back a car driver can only see you if they are directly behind you. Are you new to baggers? The rule of thumb is more lighting so idiots in cars can see you. You just made your bike invisible from any angle. Return them. Stock looked better and is safer. Shame on CD for even making such crap. Somebody will get hurt and they will sue them and most likely win. Plus look at the damage it leaves after install. Horrible product.
