Hello all!

I'm looking to replace my front mirrors with bar ends, but I would still like front indicators. Are there any available that would screw into where the mirrors previously resided? I searched the forum and google and didn't have much luck, so I thought I would ask here.

Thanks,

Rob

A popular thing that people are doing is drilling some holes in the plastic body work on either side of the head light and installing their own turn signals. I did it on my CR. You can google image search it and see how you like it, or others on here can probably show you pictures of theirs. It is pretty sweet.

I have the Oberon bar end indicators for my front and rear signals.
Also have their bar end mirror for the left side.

Good stuff, but $$$$

Guys,

I appreciate the responses! I saw the Oberon bar end signals, but didn't want them because I'm looking to not add width to the bike. Also, they are a bit pricey : )

I've also seen the signals mounted on the body work, but don't really want to go down that route either.

What I'm really looking for is something that can thread into where the stock mirrors sit and can operate off the stock wiring.

Stock wiring will require LEDs.

Thread is 10x1.25 IIRC. Might be able to get some plain ol' stem mount signals and just mount them "up" instead of "out"?

And if you want to get rid of your mirrors....I could use a set for my M2L. : )

Thanks Ratbuell. Unfortunately, I laid down my bike and effed up both mirrors beyond use... : (

i just got the mirror block off plates and then re-wired my marker lights as turn signals and replaced the clear bulbs with amber ones... worked very well with a minimum of fuss and if regular amber bulbs aren't bright enough you can just plug in amber led's... everything was available from american sport bike
