So what options are there to replace the front signals? Preferably something that can be seen in broad daylight.
For the front:
I have the Yamaha Passing Lamps... They can be on or off for the light function, and as a pair there just as good as the stock lamp (non high beam of course) It's a huge actually yellow arrow on the turn signal function, and it shuts of the lamp on that side when the lights are turned on.
I'll post pictures now that I can get them off my phone. Someone else wanted to see them too.
For the rear:
I was going to take the stock turns off and put Kuryaken Razor Eyes with the brake and turn functions, and now that I see this also replace the tail light with it... I'm still trying to figure out someway to remove the rest of the end and move the license plate up, keep the required NYS (Rear Facing) Red Reflector, and license plate lights... So far I figure a LED (white strip) lighting for the plate that, and a simple slim red reflector or some sort of red reflective tape along the back fender to maybe put right on the fender as a wrap around rather than the L&M mod. Then can take out the reflector/plate light and mount the license plate where it was while removing the useless and not required side relectors on the bracket (As well cut it off at the ends) and get rid of a good couple inches of plastic below the plate.
I read the darn motorvehicle laws of nys in regards to motorcycles, and it's odd you need a rear red reflector when you have a rear red taillight on ALL the time, but I think that is before they required the daytime headlight to be on, and didn't anticipate the rear would be on also as dim. The license plate light being lit up is also on the books, so I figured I'd cover that with the white led string right on a holder or something. I just don't a stupid excuse for a ticket when they do the motorcycle checkpoints only... Which seem to be alot of around here.
