Title: Flush mount signals!!
Post by: GS Paul on June 30, 2014, 01:53:54 PM
Hey all!! I have a 2001 gs500e. Looking to replace my signals with flush mount signals (teardrop if possible). Do 2001 gsxr compatible signals fit the gs500?? Anyone have any luck with a particular company?
Cheers and thanks for any ideas!!

Fit wiring? .. Fit holes in fairing?... Fit curvature of fairing? ....

Probably all a reasonably simple mod with some time if they don't!  :thumb:

More of an issue is are the new ones LED? .. Then you also have to do the diode mod ... Still not a major issue... Info on the forum about that!

Are you looking to install the flush mount signals on your naked bike?

^^ Yeah what he asked...where exactly will you put them? Just in the back right?

No matter what you use, any signals will be "compatible". The issue will be how you fit non-stalk style where the originals used to be. Also, if you switch to LED ones, you will need to adjust the wiring harness to work properly.

Yeah just on the rear. I have flushmounts that the previous owner installed. Looking to update as one signal has started to melt the plastic covering.
Thanks for the info
