Frequently Asked Questions

NOTE TO ALL R1150 RT AND R1150R OWNERS
WE'RE OK!

We've put Hyper-Lite brake enhancement kits on dozens of 1150s with the new brake system, and had several put through the mill by BMW techs.

Hyper-Lite kits DO NOT AFFECT THE NEW ABS SENSOR SYSTEMS IN ANY WAY (including BMW CANBUS single bulb)

We're just too darned efficient. Our 280 miliamp current draw is well under the amperage necessary to trigger the sensors. SO if you are the proud owner of a new BMW do not hesitate to e mail us for your Hyper-Lite kit.




"So How Are The BMW Hyper Lites Different Than The Universals?"
Most come with the wiring ready to plug in.




A note from a customer:

A note from the installation, as I saw it: (K1200RS) The "cut down" connectors used to connect the wires on the brake lamp were "cut down" too much! They literally fell off the light housing after being slid into place. I had to try to come up with some method to ensure they wouldn't fall off. I hope that they don't eventually work themselves loose and fall off due to vibrations. Other than that, the installation was easy enough, and I now feel safer, having those bright lights getting the attention of other drivers.

Motorcycle Lighting replies:

Not a complaint we get often, but he's right. There are no .185 piggybacks made anywhere in the world, so we have to modify them. Actually, the real problem was not width but tightness. They needed to pinch the female together a bit. Probably got widened while working the OEM connection apart.




Answers

Are Hyper-Lites compatible with my bike?

Yes! Hyper-Lites are compatible with all 12 volt systems!

 

Are Hyper-Lites CANBUS compatible?

Yes! Our system doesn't draw power from the brake light circuit, and we only use a sensor to detect extra voltage in the system!

 

Will Hyper-Lites cause ABS errors?

NO! We're just too efficient. Our low amp draw, 280 miliamps, coupled with our brake sensor makes us invisible to ABS sensors!

 

How much current do the kits draw?

Two light modules and a controller come in at just over 1/4 amp at 12 volts!

 

Can I switch my controller from Brake Light only to Brake/Running?

NO. Sorry each controller has a firmware progam installed before it's potted. You have to order the type you want.

 

Do I have to cut into my bike wires to install Hyper-Lites?

NO! Positap and Positwist connectors require no cutting to install. They screw together and tap in to your wire with a pinsized probe.

Where can I mount my Hyper-Lites?

Anywhere you have a smooth flat surface! Hyper-Lites mount with 3M foam tap. Just clean the surface with alcohol before you stick them on.

Should I test my kit before installing it?

NO! Our kits are tested before they ship, and testing your kit to the un-fused battery can expose them to too much amperage overloading the circuit..

Why does my kit keep flashing continuously while the brake is on?

Our kits come set to continuous flashing mode. To set the kit to 5 second mode just snip the green wire. If this doesn't work, detach the gray wire and reattach it. The controller needs to reset.

My lights flash when the key is turned but not when the brake is applied?

It's likely that you have reversed the gray and red wires. Switch them and try again.

An LED in my kit is out. Can it be fixed?

NO, sealing our units make it impossible to fix them. Give us a call. Your unit might be under warranty.
