RUN-N-LITES conversion kits illuminate the stock turn signal
housing with a low intensity light at all times. A high intensity
light flashes with actuation of the turn signal switch. There
is no cutting or splicing of wires or modification of the
turn signal housing required to install RUN-N-LITES.
TYPE-2 RUN-N-LITES
The TYPE-2 kit fits either the front or the rear of the above
listed bikes. The kit utilizes standard, dual element, car
tail light bulbs (#1157). These bulbs contain both a low intensity
element and a high intensity element. The low intensity element
is the running or marker light, which is ON all the time.
The high intensity element is the flashing, turn signal element,
which is ON intermittently. The stock BMW single element turn
signal bulb and socket are replaced with the RUN-N-LITES dual
element bulb and socket. The RUN-N-LITES bulb handles both
running (marker) and turn signal functions. No modifications
are required to the turn signal housing or the wiring. Power
for the new running light circuit is obtained from existing
terminal points.
Demand on Electrical System
The additional draw on the electrical system is 16.6 watts
(1.18 amp) per each kit installed. Two kits are required to
outfit both the front and rear lights of a bike; 33.2 watts
(2.36 amps) total. This is no problem on the K-Bike as the
electrical system is very robust. |
