Removing brake light lense
I've noticed, that especially on a bright sunny day, that my brake lights leave much to be desired.
I picked up some "cat eye" LED lights that I'm going to install along with the stock bulb.
How do I remove the red plastic lense that has the "Aspencade" name on it?
I have a donor bike, but I still don't want to break the lense.
Thanks a million for your help.

I think the lens is welded to the body, so it might be risky trying to pry it apart.
I have some flashing LEDS under the luggage box on my bike which come on with the brake switch and my brake light flashes from side to side for several pulses then goes to full on.
You might be better to replace the stock bulbs with LEDS but I don't know how much brighter that they would be.
The only stupid questions are the one's that are not asked.

Thank you Sir.
I believe that is what I'm going to do.
I have put LED bulbs in there, and without the engine running, the brake light is much brighter.
Thank you so much for your help.
