The adhesive will not bond correctly if applied at temperatures less than 50°F. Do
not attempt this installation in temperatures less than 50°F.

STEP 13

Once you are satisfied with the placement of the Run-Brake Light Strip, remove

the Strip from the motorcycle. Starting at the right side of the Strip, rub the

backing of the adhesive with your fingernail and start to peel the backing about

two inches back from the end of the Strip. Using the reference marks made in

Step 12, attach this end to the Trike body/motorcycle. Slowly work your way to

the left end of the Strip, rubbing and peeling the backing a little at a time,

following

your

reference

marks,

until the left end is attached to the

Trike/motorcycle. Press and rub firmly along the Strip for one minute. Full

bonding will occur in 24 hours.


Always install the Light Bar Harness upstream (before) any existing

multifunction control modules. Do not install the Run-Brake Strip Light
Harness between a module and the turn signals, as this will overload the

module. Overloading will damage the module and may create a fire

hazard!


Secure all wiring away from any moving parts, pinch points or extreme heat.
Küryakyn WILL NOT issue a warranty on any electrical component that fails due to
pinched, crimped, broken, abraded, melted or frayed wires.


Küryakyn recommends the use of dielectric grease on electrical connections.

STEP 14

Using a test light, or the wiring schematic for your motorcycle, locate the brake wire, the running

(tail) light wire and a good ground wire. Mark these for reference. Turn the bike “off” and

disconnect

the

battery.

Avoid potential electrical shock! Disconnect the battery before starting this

procedure.

STEP 15

Install a female T-Tap to each of these wires.

NOTE:

Black Wire = Ground White Wire = Power Red Wire= Brake


STEP 16

Cut the connector off of the wire harness from the Run-Brake Strip Light. Strip about 1/2” of the

insulation from the wires and install one of the supplied male spade connectors to the RED wire,

one

to

the

WHITE wire and one to the BLACK wire.

NOTE:

Because the wire lead is a small gauge, it is recommended to strip enough

insulation so you can double back the wire before you crimp on the male

spade. PIC 6

STEP 17

Plug the male spade on the BLACK wire to the female T-Tap on the ground wire. Plug the male

spade

on

the

RED wire into female t-Tap on the brake wire. Plug the male spade on the WHITE

wire to the female T-Tap on the running (tail) light wire.


STEP 18

Connect the battery, turn the key “on” and test the lights.

ENSURE PROPER LIGHT OPERATION BEFORE RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE.
VISIBILITY IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR MOTORCYCLISTS. A LIGHT

MALFUNCTION COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
