Aftermarket turn signals

Ahhh... Doesn't look like you can buy just the lenses anymore.  I don't think you can buy anything for my bike. 

If you want a cheaper alternative (although, still the stock lights), the clear alternative tinted lenses make things less noticable.  Best part is the $19.95 price tag.

Hey thanks!!  I checked the factory website and they weren't listed.  I'm a dealer for a variety of sporting goods and can get Rizomas at dealer cost, but personally, I kind of like the round factory ones with these lenses in smoke.  Will smoke be bright enough???  I like the somewhat classic retro look of the monster with minor mods to the esthetics.  For example, the headlight, espescially with my windshield off.

IMO the stock signals are quite bright, at least if the reflectors are clean. I asked a riding buddy if he fitted stronger bulbs (he hadn't) - I was surprised how bright they are - especially compared to some integrated signals.
I haven't seen our signals with smoked lenses, but I have a strong feeling they will be bright enough. The "smoke" isn't very thick. AND they look great on black bikes.

When I bought the clear lenses (red bike) I tried them with chrome coated amber bulbs. They look MUCH better with no trace of amber through the clear lenses. BUT, the chrome coating make them dangerously weak - I tried larger 27 watts, but still no brighter than the 10 watts amber bulbs + they are too large to fit.

We had this posted up on TOB but here it is again. Rizoma Zero's modified to fit the no-chop CF tail.

This on Dr. Desmo's on S4R

I've ordered the clear lens (sorry, black bike at the moment - plan is eventually pearl white though!) and was wondering about getting better bulbs...

chrome covered are obviously out

can you get bulbs greater than the 10 watt that will fit? (don't care if they are orange)

thanks in advance

Looks
Great, what was done to the lamps to get them to sit flush?  Any pics from the inside? Thanks.

Ummm dude.  Do you mind if I ask where you got the smoked windshield?

 Yes, the stalks were removed to make the signals fit flush to the CF tail. It's difficult to notice but the back of the housing/lens was reshaped as well because the base was too long to fit in the space allowed on the CF tail.

 It's a bit more work than just removing the stock.

 Sorry, but I don't have any pics from the inside. It did require me to drill and tap an additional hole in the base of the housing to mount though.

Yes/No      I did some heavy searching and found the larger size 21 watts amber (very bright) and 27 watts chrome coated amber (as bright as the clear or amber 10 watts). Both fit in the socket and will flash as normal, BUT they are a few mm's too long to fit under the lenses. I also found LEDs that will fit in the stock socket, might need resistors, but they are also too large to fit under the lenses. (sorry if "socket is the wrong word)

I haven't been able to find stronger bulbs with the same/similar size as the 10 watts. I will keep on looking, but I think I will continue coming up empty handed.

I will cut into this one (sorry) - no surprise, Jeff at MonsterParts has the Zero Gravity Touring Screen in clear and smoked versions. It is much more stable than stock and lift the air a bit up. They will be even less flappy with the PoorDucRiders, but I'm not sure that it is a must. For me, at 6'4", it moved/reduced the turbulence that hit directly under my helmet causing a LOT of noise. Now, some of the noise is still there, but greatly reduced. The important part is that the wind and noise are at steady levels. To get it really quiet the fairing must be removed - at least that is how it works with my Schuberth R1 helmet.

What was the topic again Sorry

Here is a good looking set but I dont know who makes them.
