Re:Red lenses for rear blinkers? 1 Year ago  
HD lenses work fine, I have the smoked version lenses on all 4 corners of my bike.
They sit a little proud of the housing but I've never had trouble with water getting in there.
The bolt holes are exactly the same so they just pop right on.
My guess is if you don't go underwater they'll be fine.
I got them (all 4 in a set) used on CL for $8.

Here's a pic of them:





Cheers

I thought I was schizophrenic, but we doubt it.

They work well. No Complaints.

think the chrome ring needs to be removed, at least on mine it did, and maybe because of the ones my dealer carries. Been so long don't recall all the details

Re:Red lenses for rear blinkers? 1 Year ago  
Has anyone actually replaced our turn signals with something a little more higher end looking?

I just think ours looks like some cheapie 5 dollar deals. thats just me though. I'd like to go with some nicer looking Kuryakyn bullet style but not sure whats all involved in switching over to those. Are there any good ones that are compatible with our stalks / mounts?

Sorry to steal this thread lol. I actually have red bulbs in my turn signals presently.

I just fired off an email to Glen and told him that you sent me!

Asked about the red lenses and the Kuryakyn Run-Turn-Brake Control. Now I hope he ships USPS to Thailand.
