Front turn signals (Flush versus long stem)

Post by vmaxmike »

I notice some FZR's have the nice looking flush mounted front turn signals that integrate nicely rignt into the cowling but cant find that on the Yamaha microfiche. Microfiche only shows the long stem ones that stick out through the hole. Is this a stock or aftermarket item?? Where can I get these flushies?

Aftermarket = Ebay. Make sure you get dual filaments for the front: 3 wire.

Dual filament bulbs (3 wire) allow you to use the front signals as running lights as well as blinkers. I believe there is also a mod that can be done to make the 2 wire, single filament bulbs work for this.

The only company, that I know of, that makes the pefect fitting flush mount turn signals is Flanders.

Look on page 76 - center bottom (white):
