2014 RTS Frunk Light

[Tango]

I have been looking for it. I can't find it. Web site says the RTS gets one. DO the 2014 RTS's get a frunk light standard like the web site says? :hun: Tom :trike:

Tom

Put your Spyder in a dark shop or garage and open the frunk and turn on the key, that little bitty speck of light in the frunk is your "frunk light" it is there i promise you. :thumbup:

Left side of the Frunk; about 80% of the way up toward the snout of the bike...
there's a recess that you can feel; it sits in there! :thumbup:

Don't worry, I've had my 2011 for 3 years and only last week I saw my light for the first time! My RT's frunk came with a liner which has been covering the frunk's bulb, although on investigation I've discovered a flap in it allowing it to be uncovered. The flap was never folded out of the way. In the pitch black of my garage at night I saw the smallest chink of blue/white light and knew immediately that the 2011 spec was true after all, the frunk DOES have a light! Not bright enough for the owner to need shades but a useful accessory nevertheless.

You folks need to move here. We don't get dark during rydeing season. Don't need no steenkin frunk light. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

My original RTS was supposed to come with one--but have never found it. :roflblack:

This is actually one of my two small complaints about these bikes:
The frunklight needs to be a whole lot brighter.
And the turnsignal indicator lights need the same treatment; PLUS a relocation to the mirror housings. :thumbup:

Your answer to the frunk light that isn't, even if it is there!

:clap: Thanks for an "en-lightening" answer! :2thumbs:

It is there.

You should be able to see the location in the photo. It was DARK when I took the photo with out flash.

As was said, little bitty spec of a light on the left side near the front. The engine must be running for it to function.

Engine does not have to be running on the 2014.

I found it. What a light. :roflblack: Thanks, Tom :trike:

Nice to know, thanks. Now if it only was more than 2 candlepower.

I'm going to have to check this out... :shocked:
Did they put a switch in the system somewhere? :dontknow:

It has alway been tied to the trunk lid switch in the past.

 

[Bob Denman]

:shocked: I had always assumed that they just left it on when the bike running; all of the time.
Wait... How do you know that it turns off? Did somebody climb down into the frunk, and report on this?? :roflblack:

EDIT: Seriously... If that's hot all of the time now; you'd best be careful about leaving the frunk unlatched, and running down your battery!

That's three!

 

[Bob Denman]

Two and a half??

It's key on power, not on the load shedding relay.
