slightly disappointing

Pros: fairly bright
Cons: no wiring diagram, poor finish
"As previous reviews have stated, the finish is NOT show chrome--more like K-Mart quality and seems to dull rapidly in the weather and must be polished more often. The electronics are not sealed and it came without a wiring diagram. that being said, overall not too bad. It adds more light to keep cars off your butt and the LED tag lamps are a benefit as well. If I had to to it over again I don't know that I would buy it again, however. Be prepared for minor alterations to use it. One of the alterations I would suggest is using RTV to seal the wire entrance in the rear and a dab to seal the mount for the light module to the frame.
FYI---black wire is the ground, red the running light and blue the brakes as previously mentioned in another review.

Pros: Installation and appearance from a distance.
Cons: Overall finish
"The frame looks good from a distance and the lights are quite bright. It definitely adds to both running and brake light visibility.
However, the finish is disappointing. It is not a first class finish. There are rough spots which on closer look are quite visible and give the overall impression of cheapness.

Pros: Sturdy construction, good light output, looks decent
Cons: LED circuit board not fully sealed off
"Installed the plate on my 2005 Kawasaki Nomad 1600 last night. I did have to modify the existing mounting setup a little bit to accomodate the LED plate, but it was well worth it. The item is pretty heavy (solid construction) and the wiring is straight forward. The light output is quite good in both running and braking mode and certainly a safety improvement.
Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the fact that the circuit board of the LEDs is not sealed off, water will be able to penetrate it unless you use a clear sealant and plug the small opening up yourself.

Pros: workmanship, came with clear lens to change out the red installed lens if wanted
Cons: No instructions. I had to touch the wires to a 12V source to find out what each wire (red/blue) did
"You always wonder what type of quality you will be getting. At $60, I was hoping for good quality. It was. Heavy with a excellent fit and finish in my opinion. This item description sounded like you could only hook this license plate up with either the brake lights or the running lights. I was pleasantly surprised that you can hook both options up. So when you turn on your bike, the license plate LED's shine at 50% power, then when you hit the brakes, the LED's shine at 100% power. There are 2 extra bluish color LED lights that shine on the license plate. Very nice.
In all, in my opinion, this license plate is crafted with high quality. It adds extra light to the rear of the bike. This is a good thing. I added the 'Stop-Alert Brake Light Pulsator' module too. This is awesome, now both taillight and license plate blink multiple times when the brake is applied, then goes solid after the 8 blinks or so.
The license plate comes with 3 wires. Black = negative (ground), Red = running lights, Blue = Brake light.
The 3 wires are long enough for a 2003 Suzuki Intruder 800cc. If you install the license plate with the LED lights at the top of the license plate, like shown in above item picture, then the wires were long enough to go under the rear wheel fender and up into the gromet with the existing brake and license plate light wires. Under the passenger seat is where I hooked up the wires. The license plate wires made it to this point. If you want to install the 3 wires under the main seat, then you'll need to connect additional wires to the ends of these 3 wires to go farther.
