That was blissful delights McG, and they are just that. It is giving someone else delight that they can make a mans life miserable. I do not envy him, because he has had his share of womens scorn and hurtful ways over the years the same as I have. I called it blissful delights when in reality it is the exact opposite dealing with scornful women. It should be called "awful misery" Hell hath no fury like a womans scorn!!!!!!!!!!!

With the system the new bikes use I think it might fry the wiring. It runs through really small dia wire now.

VT - I sure did laugh at your description as you having ""blissful bliss"". I sure do hope a great gal does find you soon. Fall bike week is coming.

I vote for some sort of electric surge. Maybe from some sort of shorted wire. I`d get a couple of more bulbs and carry for a spare.

It is odd, VT. I replaced the DRLs on my wife`s GMC with LEDs They popped right in and look brighter. Not sure if they would fit behind the lens since they are slightly longer.

Dave, I am not sure I have a problem, only time will tell, I just thought it was strange with both rear turn signals going out within a few day span, and maybe only just one bike ride between that time. There are different styles of LED taillights, I saw them online when I was looking to try and see if others had encountered both bulbs going out about the same time. If these new bulbs do not blow soon, I may replace them with the LED bulbs.

I don`t know if there is room for LEDs or not, VT. It might solve your problem.

8/14/2018 12:44:00 PM

I just email him, VT.

Thanks Moscooter, I am a very mechanical person, but when it comes to the electrical circuits I am at a loss. I will do nothing for now as long as these new bulbs last, but like I said they way they quit that close together and no older than the bike its, I may have another problem lurking there. But I will look into what you suggested and see what they say. I am just glad the bike has that separate light at the bottom of the fender that must be on a different circuit because it was still burning. So I still had some light in the back of the motorcycle for vehicles behind me to see.

OK, mystery over. It finally came to me and there are multiple YOUTUBE videos and other explanations but I don`t know how to get them on this forum.

Look up...................CAN Bus. That it the term I was looking for.

It will explain to you how car/bike/truck wiring systems have evolved and changed from what you (used) to know.

The name of the wiring changes to Harleys since around 2012 or 2013, I know my 2014 has it.....I can`t recall the new system name. Anyway, it doesn`t work quite like what you have grown to know in past years with electrical circuits.

That may or may not be a factor in your bulbs blowing. I just know that soon after I got my `14 model, I wanted to add one of those rapid blinking tail/stop lights that I`ve had on past Harleys. They did not have a way to make that work on a 2014 because of the new wiring setup that I still cannot tell ya the name of........

I had both my taillights bulbs burn out within a week of each other on my7 2016 Roadglide, that is a strange occurrence I think. It makes me wonder if I do not have another problem lurking around there somewhere than just bulbs. I have only had the bike 2 years, and I think it very unlikely that both bulbs would go out at the same time or within a few days or hours of each other like that.

I am wondering if something grounded somewhere or a voltage surge or something caused them both to blow almost at the same time. Both bulbs were black on one side like it blew with an arc instead of just wearing out gradually. I put new bulbs in it and it is working now, but I am thinking the way this happened that this will occur again real soon.

As far as trip not having a password for the zone, he can send bobram an email and he will get it fixed for him, if he really wants to get back on here.

8/14/2018 10:11:29 AM

I last got an email from Trip about 2 months ago, and I think him and her were not seeing each other as much then as they had in the past.

I don`t have a lot to say about his relationships with women, since I have enough troubles with them myself without getting into or worrying about someone elses blissful delights!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would call and talk to him sometime, but he lives pretty close to the cuff and I do not know if he even has a phone in service now. I used to have his phone number but he never answered it when I called, so I just quit calling it.
