Kellerman Kuryakan Turn Signal Review

- I wanted smaller turn signals on the front of my bike. Went back and forth on several different types, and ultimately settled on the Kellerman Bullet Atto Mini Turn Signals.
I did not receive these to do a review, I purchased them outright. If I have any issues with the lights, I will update the video.

Great demonstration video bud, thank you for that, it just made me decide on what I’m getting
These are crazy, I thought this was going to be a joke but man those are bright
Yep!
Good review and clear instructions!
Dang they're really bright. Very nice!
Yes they are! Fantastic lights for sure
@@weekendmotorcycleguy3229 worth the money so far?
frances absolutely! I would recommend them.
That little Bad Boy is Bright!!!
Yes they are :)
Good job man
I'm impressed with these. Thanks for making the video. What'd you do to seal up the backside of the bolt and wires?
Hey supermotojak, sorry I missed this comment! I used liquid electric sealer on the backside of the wiring exiting the signal.
@@weekendmotorcycleguy3229 All good. Thanks for replying.
Great Video, I have a set but have not installed them yet because the gage of the with for the lights is smaller than my stock lights. Did you use any adapters for the small cables?
Deco Comprehension! Sorry for not seeing this! Yes, I didn't want to cut the original wiring since its a limited edition bike. I had to find the mating connector to make it work.
You have paint the bezel black at the oem turn signals ?
I haven't painted anything on the turn signals (stock or the aftermarket).
Great vid. So, do the M8 bolts allow u to screw light directly into the original holes? Thnx
Hi Bob. The holes were not threaded. I did not have to do any modification to the mounts for them to work.
Thanks for the video!
I'm looking at these and the Rizoma Club turn signals, not sure which ones yet. In another video I read that one of the bikes in that video got some water in one or both, not sure, his Rizoma Club and was getting these Kellermans to replace them. I mounted saddlebags on our 2005 Dyna Wide Glide and I need to mount new turn signals all the way back in the last hole in the fender struts. You say that they make different length mounting bolts for these? I have a backrest mounted which mounts between the rear fender strut and the fender which means that the bolt or stud needs to be a bit longer, probably about 1/4" or so.
Jeff, im sorry for missing this and you likely have already done something to your bike for the turn signals. But if not, yes, there are adapters. Look at A&J Cycles from New York. They have the adapters and feel free to send them a note. They will help answer specific questions for ya!
@@weekendmotorcycleguy3229 Yes, I got the Kellerman Atto's but I haven't mounted them yet, I've looked all over the internet for a way to mount them and I haven't been able to find anything. Every hollow bolt that I've found for mounting are too short and are for Harley's without the back rest installed. I'll try the place you speak of and see if they can help me, thanks...
Can you wire them for running/turn signal function? Meaning they are on all the time steady, then will flash when turn signal is activated.
As they are now, no. You would have to modify the wiring in order to achieve this. However, im fairly confident they have other products that achieve this.
They're not DOT compliant cause the US requires turn signals to at least be a certain size.
Same reason some sequential turn signals on Audis require the brake light to flash with the turn signal. The initial light has too small of a foot print to be DOT approved.
Hence why at 2 minutes in I say they are not DOT compliant and that it's up to you to make the determination to install then or not. I will say that I've been around plenty of cops and not one has said a lick about them not being compliant. I also live in the states. I know some are more strict than others.
Thanks for the video really appreciated
6:09 WTF ??? Lol who put that big of a turn signal on a bike ^^
Haha. Triumph. Honestly likely some government regulation about sizing and spacing that OEMs are required to meet I'd suspect.
But yeah, this is why I changed them out.
Don’t get to excited, they won’t work on all motorcycles, if you hav CAN BUS system they won’t work and if for some reason they do you will throw some check eng lights down the road
You can get CAN bus adapters for the most part. Revzilla supplies an adapter for some of the Rizoma signals. Custom Dynamics also makes sets for HD and Indian. But I'm sure there will be some out there where it won't work.
For later made triumphs that come equipped led signals already, they work without even requiring an equalizer. You just have to determine which flash mode you need during a key on while holding the information button.
And now that I think about this a bit more, the adapters are still going to be resistor based. Can bus requires a set restinace across the network to properly communicate. The signals i doubt would be smart devices in which they actually send out a signal to a BCU. If that ever happens, that will be a sad day as a replacement would get pricey.
Rather, the BCU would see a loss in load across the circuit, and then flag a fault, etc.. loading the circuit correctly to trick the BCU is what you would need. Im assuming that the trimmable parameter within the setup of the Triumph ecu allows for some variance depending on the mode selected.
A guy had an Indian ftr1200 mounted these lights and got them to work for 9 months then the computer went bad and they wouldn’t fix it under warranty, the more I’ve been reading about this I decided it’s not worth it I’ll just keep my stock lights
@@jamespolucha6911 I would be suspect that the lights caused an ECU to go bad. They are just lights. The only way I could link that is if there was a short that fed into the ECU somehow from a mishap in wiring. Then when the turn signal was energized, feeding back into the ecu and frying it internally. The only way they would be able to determine that is by verifying the wiring or have the ecu sent to the supplier for analysis to understand the failure.
I would definitely like to read the article where you found that. I've worked in the automotive industry my entire career as an engineer and haven't seen or heard anything like that.
Won't say its possible and I always like to learn more :) Perhaps the motorcycle world does something goofy I'm not aware of.
On a CAN BUS system there is no hot and ground like on typical 12 volts it’s all fed threw a computer, I’ve been reading a lot about this BMW has had it for sometime and apparently the new Indians do also I think my model ha 3 computers and the salesman told me if I’m not riding the bike for a week or so to keep it on a battery tender so it won’t go dead or loose its language, kind of complicated
