It is a DIY kit. Here is a write up I did when I put it in my ZRX-

Note the new link to the kit at the bottom of that post.

I don't see any reason it wouldn't work with a flashing module.

It is pretty simple- the light rings are red LED, so when they are on the light is cast red. When the blinkers are on, the light rings shut off.

On the ZRX the install was easy. On the CB, it required me to cut the metal support piece inside the blinker that goes from the base to the clip on the side to fit the ring. I can take pics of what I did if anyone is interested. I also coated the back of the light rings with liquid electrical tape since the base inside is metal. There was no need to do any of that on the ZRX.

Yes, I'd be interested in a 'how-to' on this. Also, the link to the supplier of the kit doesn't seem to work from my end. Could easily be a 'me' issue, though.

------- turns out it was a 'me' problem. The link way down at the bottom of the post works

Thanks for sharing; increasing safety/visibility could help with accident avoidance and/or save your life!

Thanks again!

Not a knock to you, Powerdubs. I watched the video and thought, "Great! He passed inspection!" Anyhow, cool work on making the bike better.
