I haven't even thought about putting them on the rear fairing, but now that I see it on like that, I'm liking the flush signals on the fender.

The LED's on the passanger pegs won't work on the GS.  The muffler is blocking the view on the right side.  I still have to do some thinking, so I'll let you know what my plans are...

Good job tho!   :thumb:

ok where did you get them bad boys ? you got a link for me ? i'd let to get a set :) get them stock ones off :)  i'll probly put them on the bottom side if they look good and are visable :)  kinda like the GSX1000

I got them at cyclegear.  I figured what the hell.  If I don't like them then I will take them off and use a little "bondo" and fill the holes and re-paint the plastics.  Flat black paint jobs are pretty reasy to come by..

There's a Cycle Gear here in Austin at 183/Burnet if you're ever in town. I think you could do a modification of the LEDs on the passenger peg brackets pretty easily. Get a strip of LEDs with some adhesive and put a few small strips right next to the tail light, covering up all that empty space back there.

Why not get an integrator?  I hate turn signals...especially flush mounts that aren't.  Or get bar-end signals...those are legal.

If you really want to run with the "flush mount" things get a aero marker light of some variety.  Autozone used to sell the ones I liked...stood mayby 1/4 off the surface, about 1/2" wide and about 2" long with the leading edge tapered to actually blend in.

those things are huge..  mine are at most about 1" x 3/4" x 1/2" off the surface.

ummm...which makes them about 1/4" longer than the ones that I'm talking about, and about 1/4" higher off the surface.  your's are also about 1/2" wider.

that_guy

mine are only 1" long.  The ones you're referring to are for cars.  I used that have a set.. Trust me these are much smaller than anything available at autozone.  I just went there to try and buy some 2 days ago and decided to get these due to size.  But anyways.  Im happy with them so far.  They are very bright and due the job rather nicely..

I haven't looked in a while so I'm not sure where to find the real low-profile stuff anymore.  Texas doesn't require signal lights so I uually don't have any.

I misread your post...the ones I'm referring to are 2" X .5" X .25"...maybe a longer but still much smaller than what you've got (which looks like the typical lockhart phillips signals).  Owner preference trumps all other opinions, though.

that_guy

tru those are much lower profile.  i think we have to have them in FL.  iono..  i like them.  makes me feel safer.
