Hey Guys, I e-mailed clear alternatives http://www.clearalternatives.com/ about FWD flush mount turn signals. Seems like they might be willing to manufacture if there is enough interest to cover the start up cost. Check out the e-mail below if you would like some flush mounts say so and maybe we get them to checkout this thread to prove there is interest in a good set of FWD flush mounts.



don't know of any solutions at this time. The cost of tooling is several thousand just for the mold and a minimum of 100 units would need to be produced just to get the project off the ground. We would need pretty conclusive evidence that this would be a high demand product.

> Hello, I am the owner of a Buell XB12R. I recently asked on an Internet forum about flush mount turn signals for the Buell Firebolt model. After much discussion it seems that there is no manufacture of FWD flush mount turn signals. There were numerous people interested in a good pair that could be adapted easily. The main problem is that the front fairing is attached using the stud form the front turn signals. If you know of any product that you make that would work for this application please inform me? If not this would be a big hit that could be worth the time and effort to produce.

B_brad, I'd be interested , but I think I would prefer if the flush mounts replaced my mirrors and just block off where the signals were.

I'd be in. I've got a set of Shock Racing mini signals now which aren't bad, but would consider replacing with flush mount if they had a similar look (clear lens/led's, amber light).
