RE: New Signal lights
H'mmm double post - so I'll put something in this.
I went and looked at your directionals. I agree, they do look cool. Now, let me make a statement about them.
A few months back I was riding with a person that had those exact signals on their bike. Might as well not have had directionals on the bike. Try this, have someone ride your bike and follow them. Have them put them on right, then left and you will see just how hard they are to see.
Matter of fact, I'm putting the shiny side of aluminum foil inside my directionals just so they show up better!
There is a reason the DOT requires lights of a specific size - it's a matter of safety!
Okay, I will get off of my soapbox and let it be!

Those look cool.
The reason the images are not showing is because the image tag is not pointing directly to an image. Look again at your tag..
Let me fix that up a little
The outer lens is clear, and has an inner amber reflector lens.
The even let some light out the back.
A closer shot of the back of the light

RE: New Signal lights
Are those things back lit? If so, that would be nice for reminding you that the blinker is still on. As far as photo bucket goes, they changed something in the last week and now you have a few choices to the right, I pick the top choice and click and copy and paste it in and its just like before. If you pick the IMG link it seems to work also, but puts those annoying IMG on each side of the picture.

RE: New Signal lights
Does anyone make a small white strobe we could mount on out bikes? That would get someones attention. I agree with Marty, I have been thinking about going back or adding along with what I have the stock turns, I don't want to give someone any excuse for not seeing me.
