Bendable Turn Signals Anyone???

Here's my solution - LED blinkers attached to 1/8" aluminum plate:

The mud flap has enough flex in it to help prevent breakage. One thing I'd do different is extend the aluminum out past the edge of the blinker to give them more protection.

Yep, I ripped all them parts off the bike too.

I'm an excellent rider. Yep.

I am thinking of installing a set of blinkers that came with my wifes WR250R. She has crashed, rolled and dropped that bike. The blinkers still live.

OR do like I do, and buy a lot of stock ones that everyone takes off for cheap and just replace them as needed.

You have seen many options in this thread.

In addition I am incredibly impressed with Yamaha 'dual sport' bike blinkers, they work well and are quite flexible.

I found a strip of LED's from elec store, maybe 50 on a strip, they can be cut into as little as groups of 3 and then just solder wire onto the LED's. 20 bucks and they can be mounted anywhere

That's really clever Dean! I'll give that a chance as I've busted so many off that I stopped counting.

Falling down, I've done that more than once.



Same for me.

My solution, cheapie flush mount signals mounted on flexible plastic - almost any plastic will do as long as it will bend ok. I started with a piece of window blind then actually bought some plastic from a store more suitable.

Works well for me.

And for several others that have done the same. The turn signals do great.

Here is my solution to this common prob. I mounted Class 8 truck trailer LED running lights on a pc of rubber. You will need a soild state no load flasher relay for the LED's.

Whats left of the 1" rubber sheet is sitting on the front fender. I also made new muffler bushings from this sheet. Got it at Graingers:

Cut the rubber on a radial arm saw and routered the edges. All held on the bike with sheet metal screws.

Bright enough to pass state inspection here in Texas.
