lots of great info in this thread.
kind of along the same lines,
i've decided to go with a dual intensity LED brake light, and 2 rear regular filament signals in the back.
the turn signals will not blink, they simply go on, then i have to click them back off.
i'm not sure if hooking a resistor up in front is the way to go (since i'm electrically inept)
trying to avoid signals in the front for a cleaner look. i know lot of guys have done it on there bikes.
