Flasher on tail lights?

Question

I have a honda unicorn. And i was wondering if anyone could tell me how to make the tail light blink like the indicator when the brakes are on. Could you tell me what parts do i have to use and probably how i could do it?

Answer 1

I am strongly against brake light flashers. I understand their purpose is visibility, but that visibility should be achieved differently. Flashing lights already have defined purposes. To change the function of a major safety warning device into something that could be confused with another is (sorry, my opinion) really stupid. The exact same holds true for headlight modulators. Flashing lights on the front are for emergency vehicles only. You cannot convince me otherwise. When everything looks like an Ambulance, then even they will not be seen.

Answer 2

There has to bee a box like shaped junction connecting the tail light to the brakes. It is meant to flash light? if you want to have a constant light when you hit the brake you have to remove it. That delays the el. at same periods so it flashes like the indicators. I have seen in on our old For pick up never on motorbikes so i can be wrong. but check it anyhow...Hope i helped you brother

Answer 3

Simple! Just hook up a flasher to the hot wire right before the brake lights! It will make them flash just like a blinker. It is a good idea to get noticed.

Answer 4

blinkers, brakes,an running lights are
3 seperate systems. tying 2 of them togethers gonna create a big short......
flashers are part of the blinker system.
there is a light bulb that will make your tail lite flash 3-5 times, but only
each time brake is applied. DO NOT
ty in a wire frm flasher to brake lite.
what will happen everythg seens like it works...parked. goin dn the street...
turn blinker on, hit brake, blow bulb.

Answer 5

There is a device out there called "BackOFF!" that does just that. It's inexpensive and is very easy to install. I had one on my Suzuki and loved it.

I highly recommend brake light flashers!

Answer 7

I use an aftermarket accessory called Hyperlights. They attach next to the taillight and flash when the brakes are applied.

Answer 8

There are light bulbs that will make it do that. Check with your local motorcycle accessory shop for them. They might not be legal in your state, so check before you buy one...
