Thanks for the positive feedback guys!!!!

Firebolt32, options 1-4 do not have built in turn signals, so no need for the LED relays. and you will only need the LED relay with 5 or 6 if you have signals with filament bulbs that you are converting to LED's (front and rear)

I recently found out that if you leave the fronts stock and replace just the rears with our integrated signal, you will not need the LED relay, as with the fronts remaining stock it will not offset the current enough to effect the blink rate.

Badlionsfan, I said I would send you one if you'd send me your wheels :-) haha!!!
(alright, so its not such a fair trade for you, but I like it )


THANKS GUYS!!!!

Saw the site and I think it is really great! Very clever of you having the flashing brake light on the main page like that. That really shows the product well. Best of luck.

Looks great Robert.
The GIF animations on the lights does it.

While so many 1125R stalk turn-signals are dying, mine work great.

I'll keep trying to send you business!

Nice lights; are they DOT approved, or does it even matter?

Now why would I need a tail light if I didn't have any wheels?

Robert,
I like the new site as well. I was going to email this to you, but since you posted this thread... Per your request, I have a few suggestions for you.

Products Page
- The Benefits of LED should be moved to the FAQ section.
- Why is this redirect a pop up instead of a connecting page?

Review Page
- Why not move the bike type and owner to the bottom right of each review and put them in the bold.

Links Page
- If you continue to use media rich content you need to get the pictures resized using a photo editor. Photoshop lets you save for the web and effectively you can reduce them images down to 3-5 k for the links.

Cityxslicker:

HAHA, sorry about your troubles! but at this time i'm just going to stick with the brake lights
But if you would like to work something out shoot me an email and I can see what I can do!



Skully:

I didnt realize you lived that close either! maybe one day I can talk the www.mchooligans.com guys into taking a joy ride out your way and meet up! I'm sure most would love to meet you!


The lights are not DOT approved, "off road" only. But I don't recall any issues with anyone and the guys in blue. Hell Baggermike has a Blue LED in the center of his, which is very noticeable within 15 feet and he said he has been stopped twice and never had a problem with the tail light. The LED's are the same color grade as used in most high end autos, just havent done the legal stuff..... :-)


Man Slowride, your killing me here
Just because I said you ride like a crazy guy....HAHA!!!

Seriously we will take all the constructive criticism into consideration! Hell thats why I posted this! So I can get the good and bad feedback!
Keep it coming guys! I want the site to be VERY user friendly and I know there are many things we overlooked since we both starred at it so much.

Thank You all for the feedback is is GREATLY appreciated!!!!

keep it safe out there! and you guys rock!!!!!!
-Robert

we fixed the Benefits of LED's page
(http://www.xblights.net/benefits.html)

So it is no longer a pop-up. it runs in-line with the rest of the site.......
i'm sure more changes to come with the help of all you guys and gals and your feedback!

Thanks!
