I had this idea a while back but just got around to doing it. I added the feature of "running lights" to the turn signals on the Hayabusa. It's a nighttime visability thing... now, instead of seeing only a headlight coming at you, I now have the addition of amber lights flanking the headlight.

It was a fairly easy mod. I simply used 4 (2 each side) 3/8" LED bulbs, drilled corresponding holes in the back of each signal lens, countersunk the LED's in, and then wired them into the headlights low beam circuit. Now when the headlight's on... the running lights are on. Easy Peezy Japaneezy :D
