Am I going to need to add anything for my front and rear signals to work properly after changing to LED? I am running Sinsiter LED Brake Lights and a single led for each front signal. Any suggestions?

Well have not played around with Shope's stuff yet but you will need a resistor if the LED do not have one buil in. You should be able to find a plug and play one availible, just make sure that the it is compatible with the HD security system and that the resistor is "insulated" so it will not interfere with the radio... Not a big deal I think one can be had for under $100.00 I forgot which one I put on my bike but I have all LEDs and everything works perfect now. If you want I can pull my side cover off when I am at home and check.

My LEDs worked but they blinked really fast without the load equalizer. I bought a Biketronics BT-801 but be careful ordering... there are four versions of the BT-801 depending on your bike.

That is what I used, the bike tronics one... I think I had to go with the blue or grey one... One is for w/ and one is for w/o the radio... Good quality product and it is also fused

I have NAMZ for my 02 relocating sensors for the KW exhaust that I had on my bike. Great product and Tech support. Mine had the wires reversed in one of the plugs. Easy fix.

Brian, I briefly looked at the sinister tail lights and their wiring. I think it is possible without the Namz box, may need to purchase a load equalizer. I will know when the dang bags come in.

i didn't run up fronts, just the namz box and natives rears no fast blink, so wondering if they are on the same "circuit" - ill dig up service manual today when i get home and check out diagram.

You should just need one to plug in and will take care of front and rear. I only have one plugs in under the seat between the fender and battery box.
