Lighting

Aftermarket lighting for Harley-Davidson M8 Softail models is another popular way to personalize your bike, enhance visibility, and improve safety. There’s a wide range of options for both functional and aesthetic lighting upgrades.

Headlights: Upgrading the headlight can drastically change the look of your Harley, and many aftermarket headlights offer improved visibility. LED headlights auch as the Baja LP6 or LP4 kits are a popular upgrade, offering better brightness, longer lifespan, and a more modern look compared to stock halogen headlights. Many come with a more focused beam for better night visibility and less power consumption.

Turn Signals: Customizing your turn signals can not only enhance the bike’s aesthetic but also improve safety by making your signals more visible. LED Turn Signals: These are brighter and more energy-efficient than the standard incandescent bulbs. They are available in many styles, from small, sleek options to larger, more visible designs. LED kits from A10 Moto often feature different colors and are available in clear or smoked lenses.

Aftermarket tail lights and brake lights can add style and improve visibility for both the rider and other drivers on the road. Custom Dynamics offers several styles for tail lights on M8 Softail Models. 

Although LEDs are energy-efficient, adding a lot of lighting can still put a strain on your battery, especially if you're running multiple accent lights and high-powered lights. Make sure to assess your battery capacity and charging system if you plan on doing extensive lighting upgrades. Be sure to check your local regulations for any restrictions on aftermarket lighting, especially when it comes to the color and placement of lights. Some areas have laws about the use of certain light colors.
