C 400 GT: Added Skene P3-TS Brake-Flashing and Turn-Signal-Flashing LED Modules

Yesterday I completed two mods to my 2022 C 400 GT, done essentially at the same time because both required the removal of most of the rear bodywork.

The first farkle (the second is my post www.bmw-scooters.com/index.php?threads/c-400-gt-added-powerlet-outlet-to-the-outside-bodywork.2503/) was adding the very bright Skene P3-TS brake-flashing and turn-signal-flashing LEDS:


I describe the work required -- pics, captions, and links -- in my gallery, from image 33 through image 43, i.e., starting here:


This is a pretty arduous mod, but one that I feel is well worth it, as the C 400 GT is not all that conspicuous out back, in general, and the turn signals do not stand out much, either. Here are a few pics, but, as I say, I have all the details in my gallery:

Edit Update, July 29: I have since turned off the conspicuity flicker, as I felt that it was too pronounced, too easily perceived as having four-way flashers on all the time. Even so, the running-light mode is extremely bright, and the braking is, as shown, even brighter. See Skene's "Installation - P3" page, https://www.skenelights.com/installation-p3, for a list of the programming options available.

Nice work. I think the added visibility is especially valuable as the profile of the bike becomes smaller. And with the syncopated flashing, if a car blasting music pulls up next to you at a stop light, you'll look like part of the party!

I see the blue beast is still there. Is Mr. Scranton traveling north by covered wagon?

Supply-chain issue? Ah, er, I mean logistical issues, but he should be here within the next three days.
