JA50N Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Since the amber pumpkins are starting to grow on me, I decided to make a subtle change to the front turn signals to make them look better. Let's see how long it takes you guys to figure out what I did... Another angle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member rowdy Posted May 30, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted May 30, 2015 Looks like you took the rubber boot off the stalk. Why can't left turners see us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JA50N Posted May 30, 2015 Author Share Posted May 30, 2015 That didn't take long, haha. I like the look much better and no more bouncing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member rowdy Posted May 30, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted May 30, 2015 I like it. They don't seem quite as... ummm... conspicuous. Why can't left turners see us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red93093 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I'm trying to do what you did. Did you just press them in without the boot. It's seems pretty solid or did you secure it somehow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantheraleo Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 That didn't take long, haha. I like the look much better and no more bouncing too. That's a pretty good look. I, too, have grown fond of the pumpkin lights. O judgment! Thou art fled to brutish beasts, And men have lost their reason. Bear with me. My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar, And I must pause...till it come back to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomascrown Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I like the pumpkins because they more easily catch the eye of other motorists. I don't like the pumpkins because they are ugly. I still am conflicted as to what to do. Your mod is a great compromise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
botbullet0 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Was it easy to do? I'd definitely like to clean up the look of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JA50N Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 It's actually more involved than I thought it was going to be. First, you need a set of these: http://www.motodynamic.com/yamaha/turn-signal-adapters.html You end up using all 4 of them on just the front 2 turn signals. Once you pull the head light off and get the turn signals off you start to see what you need to do. Take the rubber portion off the signal (it involves some cutting of metal and rubber) then you use the adaptor plates and the stock nut on the hole in the head light where the turn signals go. You will have to dremel the adaptors' holes out some to accommodate the wires and the metal shoulder. Then you use the stock nut, trim the stock oval washer to a roundish shape and the adapters and sandwich the whole mess on the turn signal hole in the head light. The adaptors fit these holes perfectly. If you need pics, look at rotaryryan's thread on his tail tidy. It shows all the parts of the stock turn signals.
