Great vid Paul. Nice to see someone else having a go. My only word of advice is to not recommend the Denali extensions as a dedicated harness from ezcan to light pod. The extension is designed to be an extension to get to lights pods that might be that little bit further away. Denali include the appropriate lengths with their cansmarts sku WHS.018 whereas Hex provide a harness kit separately to specifically reach the pods from the back. We sell singular ones of these H1-EXT-001

I'll be doing similar myself. My bike is due soon, for 1st week in Jan, and I have a nice set of D4s to install. Looking forward to installing mine. A very similar install to yours, except mine will be a single channel (both lights on same circuit, so not left/right separated). With regards to NippyNorman, I had a horrible experience with them, so never again for me. Plenty of other suppliers out there, thankfully.

@@gsd32i well, yesterday I wired up my front D4 lights. I didn't take off all the side panels, but managed to route the cables very similar to you, but slightly different in one or two areas. Overall, I'm happy. I'm only using the one connection for the D4s. I set the daytime at 20%, night at 30%, and obviously 100% on full beam.

Hi Paul, Thanks for your time and effort creating these videos. Regarding OEM lighting have you any thoughts about the multifunction front & rear indicators? Just got a brand new GS and the more I think about it the more I’m concerned about their safety WRT to the way they look to other road users?

Hi and thanks. Its something that has concerned me and others ,but as yet I haven't had an issue with it. There are some pricey replacements out their just on the market. I am hoping that BMW will be doing a software update, but who knows. I have heard that the new Bmw's have the software option to turn off the self cancelling bit too, not a fan of SC indicators myself. Apparently it's in the vehicle settings, lights, comfort or something like that. Ride safe 👍

Great video and enjoying the content, especially as I’m about to get a new GS1250 TE triple black. How are you getting on with the front indicators being on as a drl? Read about some having trouble with cars pulling out on then thinking they’re turning. Could change the lights out but unsure whether that’d void the warranty.

I am not a great fan of the multi function indicators on the back..I wish BMW would change those.Great bike👍

It will be interesting to see them in action at night. Particularly, how strong are they are in relation to the standard headlight, as strong again or twice as bright etc? I realise you are familiar with and happy to use Denalis but I'm curious whether you looked at alternatives such as Baja Designs. The D3s have 2100 lumens. I have a pair of BD Squadron Pros mounted on my GS and they have 4900 lumens and really are very bright with an excellent beam pattern. When you had the D3s on your bike on high beam I was surprised they didn't look overwhelmingly bright on the camera.

Hi Geoff I’ve had Denalis before and to be honest it’s really the only brand that I know when it comes to lighting , sad but true. Night shoot planned in the next few nights . I have already been out at night just to get the Denalis angled correct so not too dazzle oncoming motorists or indeed the motorists that you are riding right behind . I don’t ride at night as a rule ! I was surprised by the standard GS headlight as it wasn’t brilliant 🙈 the D3’s were impressive though …….
