Trunk lights

Le Saint Posted 2014-01-03 3:06 AM (#150209) Subject: Trunk lights Puddle Jumper Posts: 7 Hi everybody, I own a Vision and live in France so over here our trunk lights are not activated, meaning they do not serve any purpose although I believe there is some pre-wiring. I talked to the mechanics and they said they can make it work for either braking OR cruising, what it is like in the US? Are they working stock from the factory for both braking and cruising, what about turn signals?? Kind regards, Le Saint willtill Posted 2014-01-03 4:02 AM (#150210 - in reply to #150209) Subject: Re: Trunk lights Visionary Posts: 1365 Central Maryland Trunk lights on the US models are wired for running lights only. I surprised that yours don't even work at all. Some Visioneers over here have re-wired them for brake and/or turn indicators. diamonbird Posted 2014-01-03 4:41 AM (#150211 - in reply to #150209) Subject: Re: Trunk lights Cruiser Posts: 251 Mechanicsville, VA United States Le Saint are you saying there's no connector under the seat for the trunk lights?

Another difference is that on our bikes the central light on the front light unit is also not activated (the round part), the back of it is actually plugged so if you want to onstall a light bulb in there you need to either buy a US front light unit or drill or cut thru the hard plastic which serves as a plug!
