I did some searching, but still haven't found a definitive answer to this question:

Is there any manufacturer that makes and aftermarket LED tail/brake assembly for the 1982 GS650G?

Before I go fabbing something, I'd like to know if there's something out there that already exists - perhaps a tail/brake assembly from another bike?

The boxy OEM tail/brake assembly looks hideous, IMHO.

Any ideas? Thanks!
 
Just go online I use google and punch in tail light. I actually purchased one from amazon, couldn't believe it but they have some motorcycle parts from independant business'. Mine is oval with the plate attached for the tag. Just do some searching and if led is you rthing punch in led tail light.
A tail light is a tail light just depends on what you want.
 
I know that I can fab a bracket to mount any 3-wire LED brake/tail light, however, I was wondering if there is:

1. An aftermarket assembly that is a simple bolt-on

OR

2. Is there a brake/tail from a different bike that is commonly used on the GS650G?
 
My friend, what you need is a cat face tail light. $20, such a deal:

Go here and dig around in the electrical parts section: http://www.crc2onlinecatalog.com/


Or maybe you need a limp sausage...

For a tail light ? The bigger the better. Small LEDs are not bright enough
