95 fzr600 dancing tailight

Perhaps someone could shed some light on this dancing taillight. Also, was this a desired effect by PO or do you think I have a wiring issue of some kind? Happens from the moment I turn the key on.. I want this gone any suggestions would be appreciated..

It's a safety feature. Will give the drivers behind you something to notice. I would personally leave it but otherwise it's most likely some bulbs in there and a relay. I have many many taillights if you want a new unit instead.

Thanks for your reply Thatkid. I considered keeping it but I have a feeling the local law enforcement wont care for a civilian with a constant flashing red light. They have this weird idea that flashing lights are for emergency personnel only. Plus I can't imagine its good for my battery.

Depends on the area, and the mood of the cop. Most don't mind a flashing brake light, but - as you say - a constantly flashing red light is likely to involve somebody else's flashing red lights ...

What's a dancing tail light? If it flashes only when applying the brakes I don't think there will be a problem unless you don't like it. If it flashes all the time, then I think you are going to have to correct it.

Dancing, pulsating, flashing whatever u prefer to call it.. As I said "it happens from the moment I turn the key on" and stays on. In addition the pattern actually changes when applying the brakes..

Yeah I am going to guess that's going to be a cop magnet. It sounds like some mod the PO did so I'd start tracing the wires from the tail light back to the source. I imagine you are going to find something that does not belong along the way. Unless it is the bulb itself, I'm not too familiar with ghetto fab. Sorry, couldn't resist.
