    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

looking to replace the original signals for my semi stock/ cafe build, have any of you ever replaced the rear red reflector with flush mount turn signals? would like to do some shorter stalk black signals on the front. would like to see what some of you have done.

Thanks,
 
What I have done with my bike is entirely opposite what you are doing with your bike, but ... you asked to see them. :-\\\

My rear reflector is built into the tail light, no way to replace it with flush signals. However, the signals in the saddlebags are supplemented with the LEDs on the sides of the license plate frame.

At the front, I have replaced the yellow lenses in the fairing with clear lenses, then got some LED modules from Custom Dynamics that replaced the incandescent bulbs. These modules show white during normal "running light" operation.

When a turn signal is turned ON, the white changes to yellow (amber),

and flashes OFF.

Many of the newer cars do this, as well as some of the newer Harleys. It's just a bit unusual to see it on a 40-year-old Japanese bike.

I love that on an older Zook.
 
Thanks. The only incandescent lights left on the bike are the instrument bulbs. Everything else is LED.

For those who know some details about these bikes, yes, I still have my self-cancelling signals. :encouragement:

I put a set of Honda Grom signals on my 79 GS1000. Fit great, look great, work great. plug & play. Partszilla for around $14 each. Sold my take offs on ebay, almost broke even. Sorry, I don't have any pics.
 
I bought mine from a well know internet site..

They are cheap chinese made but at ?1.56 each if they are broken it's not a problem and they look ok.
