So I'm thinking about getting some new turn signals and I was wondering what everyone else has, and what are my options? Let see some pictures of what kind of signals are out there. I've been thinking about getting those LED cat eyes ones, but I haven't seen many otheres besides that... Thanks!:D
 
I went with the dual circuit led's... they are a bit pricey but when wired to you brake light it makes the advantage of using aftermarket worth it.. I used them up front as well and wired them to my horn... So basically when I hit my horn my led's flash a bright red!!


It's not letting me post the URL because it is to long but this is the headline which you can copy and paste into ebay..

MOTORCYCLE ALUMINUM LED TURN SIGNAL ASSEMBLIES NEW LEDS


make sure you get red inserts not amber.. unless you prefer red turn signals
 
These are the ones off of american sport bike.

Hey NOMADIC.

In California it's actually illegal to have any colour other then yellow(amber) in the front signals. The backs can be red or yellow, doesn't matter but they said something about impersonaiting a state officials vehical... blah blah blah.

Hey DustyXB.. Seriously!! Even for the horn? You can keep the front amber as for the turn signals but only the red insert (aprox 7 leds) will be red and only when you hit your horn... If I get pulled over by a cop for trying to be precautions and visible well I don't know what I'd do....

[confused]
 
Nomadic, Can yo post a pic or two of these mounted on your bike? Also is the amber or red brighter then the other?
Thanks
Brett
 
I went with some $18/pair Motrax signals from cyclegear. That and a home made LED Tail using LED's I bought in bulk from LEDSHOPPE.com (out of hong kong)...

Been pretty happy with the results
 
Ok thanks for posting guys! I think I'm either going to get the cat eyes ones from american sport bike or the Motrax ones from cycle gear for the front. I want to get an integrated rear LED tailight for the rear. My question is, does anyone make a licence plate relocation bracket or something like that to get it all cleaned up in the back without the normal signals? Also will I need a different relay for the LEDs?
 
For the LED you will need the flasher. American sport bike sells them and its like a 5 min. install.
 
I went with ASB Cat eyes (LED) and an intigrated rear brake/led and run the stock flasher as I prefer the faster flash.

Here is what they did look like

What I did I eliminated turn signals altogether. I mean I still have them but in the rear they are integrated - LED XBlights.com and in front they integrated in mirrors. Looks really clean.
