Turn signals
Found these on e-bay, I think they would actually bolt right into the stock holes, ideas? comments?

RE: Turn signals
I ordered these to replace the front turn signals. They are not LED but they are shorter in length and will hopefully give a more streamlined look.

For the back, I ordered the same brand, but flushmount.

I'll let you know how well they mount and send some pics.

are you sure the ones you ordered for the front will work? they look too short. i was looking at my bike and it looks like they might not come out past the headlight far enough?

I am not sure about the actual measurements. They were'nt posted on the website. They may not work at all, however, I think that enough of the lens will stick out past the headlight and give it more of a streamlined look. Mine are already on order so I'll let you know when they come in and I'll post some pics too in case you want to see them.

RE: Turn signals
I just wanted to let you know that I went riding yesterday, and my left turn signal just fell off, it was being held by the wires on the bike, the welding sux on that rack. No I did not wreck once, it just fell off, and I didn't notice until I pulled into a gas station. Had to use duct tape to get it back on, and thats a stronger bond then what they welded on there

This stuff is great. It's actually got iron in it - it is magnetic. You can find it at auto parts stores, Home Depot, etc.

Finally got the new front turn signals mounted. had to do a little modification to the headlight fairing with a box blade and dremel tool, but the turn signals look great and the turn signal bulb is actually sticking out completely past the fairing.
