MB165 Old School tailight

[huskykicker]

I finally found a tailight that gives me the "old school" look. It's a Model A Ford light with the "STOP" script at the top. I made up a bracket out of some scrap junk and stuck it on. The light has two 1156 single filament 12v bulbs and I want to wire them so both are on all the time, since this bike doesn't have a stop light switch and I am way too lazy to put one on it. I guess my question is, will the mag put out enough juice to power them all up? I guess we'll find out.

Going to be VERY dim, the factory bulb is the equivalent of one of those bulbs so two will draw a lot

Maybe use a couple of 1156 base LED's...

thats looks bad ass. Just for looks, its awesome. If you actually get it to work, thats a bonus.

Go with LEDs. I added a brake light to a db30 and never have to recharge the battery it seems. When I do I use a cheap solar charger for a few days and call it good

I guess I don't really care whether it works or not. If it turns out to be dim....so be it. I just like the looks of it on the bike. Makes it look more like a real motorcycle, sort of.
