Smilerider Posted April 9, 2009 Share #1 Posted April 9, 2009 Has anyone installed the light bar from this company? If so, how do you like it, how bright is it? The price seems fair, and it appears to be a relatively easy mounting unit. I am heading on a trip to AZ and think this would be a good addition to the bike. Oh one last thing, do you need anything special to make the unit function as running and brake lights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenw Posted April 9, 2009 Share #2 Posted April 9, 2009 Took a look at their web site and it says they are dual intensity so it should be a straight install. I don't have any experience with it, so it will be interesting to see what others will have to say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethroish Posted April 9, 2009 Share #3 Posted April 9, 2009 Have not heard of that company, but is it something like my picture? Got mine from DiamondRAccessories.com. Very easy to install. You will need about 2 feet of extra wire, but light works great. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/vbpgimage.php?do=full&p=3522&d=1198461690 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvester Posted April 9, 2009 Share #4 Posted April 9, 2009 I have the Diamond R also and it is great. Most of my RSV friends use it also. Easy install and very bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiteSquid Posted April 9, 2009 Share #5 Posted April 9, 2009 Which product???? I see ten light bars on their web site. Click HERE to go to the page I was looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birin Posted April 9, 2009 Share #6 Posted April 9, 2009 I purchased the 15 inch light bar with turn signals and brake and running lights from Chrome Glow. Had to buy a 5 to 4 wire trailer converter to get it to work on the Venture. Good delivery, very bright lite and good pricing. Birin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smilerider Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share #7 Posted April 9, 2009 Thanks everyone for your responses. The unit I am speaking of is the Trunk Mount Light Bar. http://www.chromeglow.com/catalog.asp?prodid=506407&showprevnext=1 Here is a link to it. Please keep the comments coming.. I greatly enjoy everyone's feedback! JM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50btripn Posted April 9, 2009 Share #8 Posted April 9, 2009 It does look very similar to the one from Diamond R. I have the Diamond R light on mine, and I can tell you, it is a MAJOR improvement to the brake light/taillight on the RSV. WELL worth the money!!

Only paid 19.99 for it but had to put silicone around the area where it splits apart. Very easy install and very bright. Hope this helps.

Beau-Kat Posted April 9, 2009 Share #10 Posted April 9, 2009 Is this the DiamondR light you guys are talking about? Red or Clear lens? http://diamondraccessories.com/yamaha/proddisplay.php?name=15``%20Slimline%20LED%20Lightbar I need one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1BigDog Posted April 9, 2009 Share #11 Posted April 9, 2009 I have used Chrome Glow in the past. Excellent company to do business with. I had bought their Bluntz windshield light and the light itself was defective. I mailed it back (with a return auth from them) and within a few days I received a new one.

Red or Clear lens? http://diamondraccessories.com/yamaha/proddisplay.php?name=15``%20Slimline%20LED%20Lightbar I need one. Yep that's the one I have (in clear lense). It is nothing like the one that Smilerider is looking at. That one has been around for some time (7 years that I know of) but is not nearly as bright as the Diamond R.

Big Mike:080402gudl_prv: Exactly my thoughts ! $19.99 and a few bucks for the resistors/diodes at Radio Shack and Wa-La ! And save almost $45.00 to BOOT !!!!!!! I have mine wired through my HOPPY also . BEER30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
