Multi tail light kit?
Has anyone located a wiring kit to run red dual filament bulbs in the rear as turn signals AND running lights? Or a dual filament amber bulb kit for the front to do the same? Sure would be alot safer to run as many lights as possible... Without cluttering up the bike with aftermarket lights front & rear.

A wiring kit? You need to understand that kind of stuff doesn't really that much of a demand/market. If you want something like that your gonna have to make it yourself. It wouldn't be that hard though. Any Kawasaki tailight socket that takes 1157 bulbs will probably fit the hole in the blinker housing. Then your gonna have to do the rest of the wiring yourself. The tailight uses LEDS instead of incandescent bulbs so a direct tap off that probably wont work. Your just gonna have to get the voltmeter out and test it.

Yes, I agree with you... Seems that the big demands tend to be for the bling bling stuff but nothing for added safety while traversing the highways. I had already thought of tapping into the stock tail light myself but knew that the LED was going to be a problem. Do you think that I could tap into the front running light? And would it be possible to splice the front AND rear in together without any problems? It may be too much to run six running lights off the same line that is only designed to run two. I did see a rear tail light kit for one of the cruiser bikes that used standard bulbs not the LED. Thanks.

Shop around - There are 12V 'busa kits that consist of a series of running LED running lights that mount on the back of the passenger pegs/etc that are extrememely visable and blink for turn signal mode.

I have done this to my Cruisers, for the rear running lights you can probably tap the license light. On my Valkyries I made the signals function as running/brake/turns using a trailer converter unit, and adding dual filiment sockets to the rear. Cheap and effective and looks factory.....TB
