Like your idea and thought about putting these on my GW.
Just a thought, aren't side lights supposed to be amber?

I worked for 40 years on class 8 trucks, and did federal inspections on them... The front markers are amber. The rear are red... that way they know if your coming or going...

Marker lights
Where these are mounted is exactly where the "RED " reflectors used to be just above the rear tires - My engine is highlighted in Amber with strips running vertical on the front frame below the steering neck - Because the front forks have AMBER reflectors.
Our laws here basically state that if you use RED or BLUE it must not be visible in a cars rear view mirror or flash while motorcycle is in motion - Wouldn't want Granny to mistake you for an emergency vehicle ... L O L

At times, I have the same problem :0)
Never ran into that before... I would have said no their not. So I got out my book....Under section 393.11 they are amber on the front, red on the rear. the only clear are license plate, backup lamps and front parking lights.... No place in the book has side markers listed as anything except amber on the front and red on the rear.... I saw some trucks running the wrong color makers on the roof.... They got with it until DOT caught them at the scales.... Guess you can run anything until a cop is looking for a reason to stop you.
