hi- i have a Honda Today Scooter.

i want to have around 10 red leds to make a "brake ONLY light".

Does anyone know how i can simply join all together to run off my 12 volt motorcycle battery?

Assuming you are running a constant 12-14v, you can wire up 12. That is, three sets of four each set of four having a 100ohm resistor between fused power and the LED set. Does this make sense? Do not try this ohm resistor with other colors though. Each color has a specific resistor value it will need because of the voltage reading and voltage drop.
