The Custom LED 2008-2013 Ducati 848 Blaster-X Integrated LED Tail Light was designed to function as a direct replacement for the OEM tail light.  The unit will install with exactly the same fit and electrical connectors as the OEM unit.  No cutting, splicing, or bodywork modifications are required, what so ever.

Additional hardware may be necessary if you wish to remove the OEM fender assembly and/or modify the bodywork on your motorcycle.  The fender assembly typically supports the license plate, and OEM blinker lamps.  On some models, removal of this fender assembly leaves gaps or unfinished sections of the bodywork under the tail section.  Keep in mind, our product is a direct replacement for the OEM tail light, and does not require any additional modifications.

There may be additional accessories required to correct blinker problems on your motorcycle if you remove your OEM turn signals. These accessories can not be built into the tail light, and are generally optional and specific to different customers needs, so they are sold separately. Please see the recommended accessories, and read about the general issues and solutions in our Frequent Questions Page. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Generally speaking, replacing the OEM flasher relay with our ELFR-1 Electronic LED Flasher Relay is the best way to maintain the stock blink rate after removing any of the OEM turn signals (why do I need to do this?). 

However, the flasher relay on the 2008-2013 Ducati 848 is actually built into the gauge cluster, and can not be removed.  You must use the 10W Load Equalizers to maintain the normal blink rate after removing any of the OEM turn signals.

It is highly recommended that you correct the blink rate on your motorcycle as the fast blink rate is a failure-mode of the stock flasher relay, and the overall turn signal system does not perform as well as a result.

Installation of this product requires that you remove the OEM tail light from the motorcycle, and install this unit in its place.  Please consult a qualified technician or your repair manual for the proper procedure to remove the OEM tail light.

Once the OEM tail light is removed from the motorcycle, installation of the Custom LED 2008-2013 Ducati 848 Blaster-X Integrated LED Tail Light is detailed in the instructions below.
