Post by mountainroadsrule » Tue Oct 16, 2018 12:10 am


so I have the standard model because I liked the color better, but I would love to addd the cornering lights. so my question is can it be done? I was wondering if the harness is already set up for it and the ecm as well?

the lights alone would cost you 1300$. 900 for the left and 400 for the right..

I dont think it's possible on the h2sx. the se version has specific options in the menu to enable and disable them

Personally I think the cornering lights are the options I would miss least I was to lose all the extras on the SE. Driving in the dark, I don't think they illuminate the curves good enough.

If I had a non SE, the quickshifter and the TFT display are the things I would want most.

When out on my se the cornering don’t make that much difference think you would be far better spending the money on performance mods at least you would feel som benefits

For the money trying to add them if I could still would be nuts. As for performance modifications, until I can use every ounce of what the bikes has and wish I had more then maybe. Not many straight roads up here to really let it fly, it does handle amazingly well for a big bike.

Harness is different, display unit is different. Turn signals on the SX have a relay - on the SE they're controlled through the display so more changes there. They're just the things I can think of without any effort.

If you really want cornering lights that bad then the quickest, cheapest and easiest option would be to sell the SX, buy an SE and paint it.

Thanks for the information. I definitely am Definitely not selling and buying again, it was more of an after thought about the lights. But good information to have.

Of course. Just trying to give a measure of how easy it wouldn't be to add cornering lights to the SX. At first guess you'd think it would be an easy addition - until you discover differences between the SX and the SE.

Hook them up to a relay connected to your high beam
