Yes, the MCS Medium Cateye Taillight comes with ECE certification, ensuring it meets European road safety standards and is fully street legal. The red lens and quality construction guarantee proper visibility and compliance with traffic regulations.
The taillight includes a standard 12-volt incandescent bulb. While some riders prefer upgrading to LED bulbs for better durability and lower power consumption, always verify compatibility with your motorcycle's wiring system and ensure the LED bulb has the correct specifications for this housing.
The MCS Medium Cateye measures approximately 83mm wide by 51mm high (3-1/4" x 2"). This compact size makes it ideal for cafe racers, bobbers, and custom builds with limited space. Check your motorcycle's original taillight mounting points to ensure compatibility with your specific model.
Installation typically involves mounting the taillight bracket to your motorcycle frame using the existing or new mounting holes, then connecting the wiring to your motorcycle's electrical system (12V). The exact procedure depends on your specific motorcycle model. Consult your motorcycle's service manual or a professional mechanic for detailed installation instructions tailored to your bike.
The cateye design is a distinctive retro styling choice popular on cafe racers and custom builds. Unlike standard round taillights, the cateye's elongated oval shape and compact proportions offer both aesthetic appeal and practical space-saving benefits. It delivers the same functional performance while adding vintage character to your motorcycle.
The lens on the MCS cateye taillight is designed as an integral part of the assembly. If the lens becomes damaged, the entire taillight unit should be replaced to maintain ECE certification and ensure proper visibility. Contact MCS or Dapper Motor for replacement options.
Yes, this taillight is designed to function as both a brake light and running light. When wired correctly to your motorcycle's electrical system, it will illuminate when the engine is running (running light) and brighten when you apply the brakes. Proper wiring configuration is essential for this dual functionality.
This MCS taillight requires 12 volts and works with any standard 12V motorcycle electrical system. Most modern motorcycles, including classic BMW models, are equipped with 12V systems. If your motorcycle has a different voltage system (such as older 6V models), this taillight will not be compatible.
