Title: GS500 turn signal instal pics.
Post by: afi1 on October 04, 2007, 06:52:07 AM
This is my old GS.  I instaled some turn signals for the guy I sold it to yesterday.  I was able to chop alot of the factory mudd flap off as well.  I'm not a big fan of the fake carbon look, but he didn't want me to paint them.  Let me know what y'all think.

I think I have the fake carbon fiber mirrors if he wants to go matching?

He may.  How much do you want for them and I'll ask him.

I think I'm going to try to find some bar end mirrors for my bike so I might get rid of these mirrors. Also might be putting on some handlebars from a dirtbike(gold). So there is a piece of that fake carbon fiber on the tip of the handlebars too. My bike is a '90 but I'm guessing the mirror and handlebar tips are compatible. I could probably do like 15 for the mirrors and 5 for the tips. Plus shipping. Like 27 total. Here's a link to some pics of it.

So, who made the signals, and how about a video / pictures of them actually working ?

I've seen so many TINY signals that were absolutely invisible next the the GS's headlight. Be nice to know if these are visible at all during daylight commutes ;)
