Rear Turn Signals Purhased (LED)
After much research and poking about on the web, I finally decided on a pair of rear turn signals. I chose them because of their casing. Tiny and anodized black. It just so happens that they are LED lights. I never intended to use LEDs. In fact, I think LEDs kinda clash with the vintage aesthetic of caferacers. But I really do feel like there was no alternative. Everything else was either chrome, cat eyed, huge, or made for sport bikes and Harleys. I went with the black anodized aluminum because they will compliment my seat.
They certainly won’t pass inspection, but easily swapped out temporarily when inspection time comes.
Since they are LEDs and draw less power, a new relay will need to be installed as well. If not, the bike will think a dual filament bulb has gone out and blink the lights twice as fast. The bike actually may require two new relays. I’m not sure. I’ll play it by ear when they arrive.
