Title: Anybody ever seen these rear flush-mounts?
Post by: My Name Is Dave on August 05, 2005, 10:14:34 AM
I just saw this on CL. Nice-looking bike, and the rear signals are cool looking. I have never seen them.

Awesome.

EDIT: I can spell "rear" if I really try. I had it misspelled in the header... bad news.

Those look pretty darned cool. I was looking at my stock rear this morning and thinking how dorky it looks. Maybe after adjusting my valves, modding the rear will seem easy. ;)

He replied to my email with:

QuoteThe lights are from cycle gear in Portland and I removed the fender with a dremmel and sander.

Sounds like a cool project. I may look for a used tail piece and try on that and then paint it. Sounds cool to me!  :thumb:

those are just front flush mounts for faired bikes.

Quote from: weaselnozethose are just front flush mounts for faired bikes.

So I could install them on the front of my bike? I had a thread asking if anyone knew of any signals I could get for the front to replace the ones I got and how they would attach.

I have some tiny post type signals in the front that just bolt in place of stock and i have ones similar to those pictured in the back except smaller.
Both are lockhart phillips. I dont know part numbers.
I can email pics of my setup if you want.
