Bullet Style LED Inserts,
Tour Pak EZ Harnesses
Oreland, Pennsylvania specialist NAMZ Custom
Cycle Products continues to deepen its presence in
the burgeoning LED lights, accessories and
components market with these Letric Lighting Co.
Bullet style LEDs in amber, red, amber with white
running lights and 3-function red run, red brake and
amber turn signals.
Available for use with or without their Badlands
lighting modules they fit all models with bullet style
turn signals, 1156 or 1157 socket, front and rear.
These 100% plug-n-play, lifetime warranty backed
Bullet LED Inserts are a multi-color, omni directional,
surface mount LED solution with sealed 1156/1157
socket and heavy conformal coated circuit board.
They simply install into the OEM bullet-style turn
signal housings on most H-D models. The 1156 turn
signals are single intensity, (one power wire, one
ground wire) and the 1157 turn signals are dual
intensity, (one wire for running light, one wire for turn
signal and one wire for ground).
A load equalizer is needed for all models except
CAN/Bus equipped ‘11-up Softail, ‘12-up Dyna and
all ‘14-up Models.
NAMZ owner Jeff
Zelinski says “our
LEDs are genuinely and fully CAN/Bus compliant -
not all those being offered on the market are, or are
of the same quality.”
Also seen here, NAMZ Tour Pak EZ Harnesses and
Hot Boxes “are a great and cost-effective way for
anyone with a tour pack to replace the factory hard-
wired harness with a quick-disconnect version,” says
Zelinski.
“Available with or without the Hot Box module they
connect between the rear fender wiring harness
connection while providing running light, brake light
and ground wire functionality to any tour pack.” The
harnesses also have a small black connector that
allows for a quick disconnect of the tour pack
without removing the seat. The connector locates
right next to the rear seat bolt, behind the seat on
the fender.
“The versions with Hot Boxes are more robust and
provide running lights, brake lights and turn signals
to a tour pack for added safety and visibility. In order
to use one of these harnesses, you will need to access
the tour pack wiring and separate the left and right
sides - this is simple to do and all our harnesses are
genuine plug-n-play and ready to install.”

New from Camarilllo, California based JIMS
is this axle installation guide. “Installation
of motorcycle axles has always been
problematic. Trying to align the wheel with
the other components such as swing arms,
caliper brackets, wheel hubs and spacers
can be frustrating, especially when trying to
do the job alone.
“This new tool is exclusive to JIMS, and was
designed by our talented partner, Hiro Koiso
to make axle installation a breeze.”
Also seen here, this new engine stand is
specifically designed for M-8 Touring
models. “Based on our own experience of
pulling the engine out of our M-8 Touring
test bike, as soon as we got it we realized
we needed a new engine stand design - and

the new design.
“In our giant new products section, you will
find amazing tools, performance parts to fit
anything from Shovelheads right up to the
new Milwaukee-
Eight Touring and
