Hey all, for those with AERO's and who have changed out there turn signal with something cooler, smaller, brighter can you post up pic's.
Im wanting to change out the BIG stock turn signals with something but I dont know what and am looking for ideas. Also I know Hondas have a weird mounting point and certain aftermarket signals wont match up.
Heading up to Biketoberfest this week and I hope to find something up there to buy and install on my Aero.
Thanks Eric

yes sir. i can take care of that today for sure. everyone that walks past doesnt even think of it so i like the subtlety and i will say i had a lady from a motorcycle safety class say that she was happy to see me using turn signals when riding. this was durring the middle of the day so apparently they are still perfectly visible even during the day time

Cool. Thanks.

Keep posting guys and gals. Looking for ideas. Ton of vendors at biketoberfest for me to choose from.

shoot those are just autozone led strips right there. they have been holding up great too. parked in parking lots all day, under a cover at night, rain etc. also, i took the stock front bracket and cut the spacer (the actual silver "arm" that the signal mounts too) all the way down flush with where the bolts would be and trimmed up the mounts, it didnt look half bad with the stock signals on there just being closer to the center line of the bike. i just got tired of them all together. they flex to easy and just seemed cheap to me so i ditched it all haha.

how do you like your bike lowered? i drag incredibly bad in turns as it is on my bike (bad habit from knee dragging on sport bikes i guess) and eat up pegs like crazy, do you still turn ok with the forword extensions? which extensions are those?

I love it lowered, raised or lowered I drag the pegs. As my wife calls it " going back into sport bike mode" . The extension are listed in my sign along with the lowering kit. Dropping it 1.5" firmed up the ride a good bit. Which I like.
I was thinking of going the bobber way but I then thought of the long low hot rod look. If you know what I mean.
Thanks for the input.
