Yes, the MCS Shorty is ECE-approved, which means it meets European road safety standards and is legal for street use. This certification ensures the taillight provides adequate visibility and brightness for safe riding.
The Shorty's compact size and horizontal mounting design make it versatile for most custom builds, including cafe racers, scramblers, and classic motorcycles. However, you'll need to assess your specific bike's tail section to determine the best laminating or gluing location. We recommend checking fitment before purchase if you have a specific model in mind.
No, the MCS Shorty does not include license plate illumination. If you need to illuminate your license plate, you'll need to source a separate license plate light for your build.
The MCS Shorty is designed for laminating or gluing into position, which means you'll integrate it directly into your custom tail section or fender. Use a strong adhesive suitable for motorcycle applications. For alternative mounting options, MCS offers a steel weld-in housing (product 922134) that provides additional installation flexibility.
Yes! MCS offers matching Shorty turn signals in both clear lens (943261) and smoke lens (943262). Using the smoke version will give your custom bike a cohesive, integrated look with matching lighting style.
The MCS Shorty measures approximately 40mm wide, 8mm high, and 13mm deep. This ultra-compact size is intentionally designed for minimalist custom builds where space is limited and clean aesthetics are prioritized.
Yes, LED taillights offer several advantages: they turn on and off instantly (no warm-up time), consume significantly less power, run cooler, last much longer, and provide superior brightness. For custom motorcycles, LEDs are the preferred choice due to their reliability and efficiency.
The smoke lens is a tinted, translucent lens that gives the taillight a darker, more integrated appearance while still providing full visibility and brightness to following vehicles. It's a popular choice for custom builders seeking an aggressive, refined aesthetic without compromising safety or function.
