Ducati Monster Forum

I just installed a set of Oberon bar-end Turn signals to clean up the front a little. I wasn't sure about them at first but I think I like them.  What do you guys think?  They seem brighter than the cheap-o LED's I had on before.

This mod is one of the first ones I fell in love with [thumbsup] It seems like a very very good idea!

My only reason for not doing it is that I'm scared of how complicated it might be. Are you willing to do a write-up?

I wish I had thought of doing that before I installed them.  I did a good "How-To" when I installed my crankcase breather valve...I guess I was just anxious to slap these on.

It was really straight forward.  I removed the headlight to get better access to the wiring.  I removed the old turn signals and then (here is the scary part) I cut the connectors off the wiring harness.  I then installed the Oberon signals, ran the wires down the inside of the clip-ons, trimmed them to length, then soldered them to the wiring harness on the bike.  The lights themselves installed just like a set of bar-ends, with an expanding collet.  I shrink wrapped the connectors then hat was it.  Put the headlight back on and I was done. 

Ever since I learned how to solder (youtube video), I have been a soldering junkie.  I have cleaned up so many wires just by trimming the excess, re-routing, then soldering them back together.

No resistors? Was determining +/- required?

Nope, no resistors.  Wires were the same color as the Duc harness, black and white.  too easy, hooked them right up and they have a standard flash rate.

I like  [thumbsup]

The Oberons look very trick! Awesome bike. The black on black tank looks great.

those look amazing. too good with the rizoma mirrors

i want these now, but my clipons arent open on the end near the triple, did you have to drill a hole to route the wires down?

Thanks

There was a plastic plug, which I punched out with a long piece of left over bar stock. 

I really like the dropped look of the clip-on's and the low Rizoma's too.  I want a new headlight, then the front end will be done. 

These are definitely on my list of to-do's, but I was wondering if they have an expasion set so you can use bar-end mirrors at the same time.  I have broad shoulders so standard mirrors just won't cut it, and I hate the look of the little extensions you can buy. 

Did you find this?

I really like that look.  My next set of mods include cleaning up the lights and looks of the bike.  I'm doing a tail chop, integrated rear taillight, black clip-ons, and some sort of cleaned up front blinkers....and these look awesome.

sick. that is the tightest sh*t ive ever seen.

Stopintime, you're like the resident accessories lexicon.  In fact, I'm pretty sure you have most of the part numbers from monsterparts and motowheels memorized:)
