Congratulations on your new bike and welcome to the forum. There are lots of options for bags. Something to be aware of is there is a weight limit with the OEM suspension (rear shock/spring) that makes it a bit more of a challenge to carry a pillion and big sidecases. Before I bought my 2020 Tracer GT I contemplated a 2020 Tracer and adding sidecases. Since you do not have mounts it is about the same to go OEM or third party for sidecases. Givi makes a couple 33 liter sidecases that I liked. Depending on what you are carrying soft bags are not out of the question either.
Turn signal, when you say it fell off was it front or rear? As I recall the front are held on with nuts and the rear with a clip. The nut or clip may have simple come off and it might be easy to re-mount the turn signal. I changed mine out to LEDs from Amazon. They work nicely and give me white lights in the front when a turn signal is not active and brake lights in the rear. I wish they were brighter but they do OK and look nice.
How did you install the Lights? I have seen many videos online, but it looked kind of plug + play is that true? Will I need to remove the whole front body panel?

Thank you so much so I am thinking I actually do have the mounts on the back side I will need to get a picture for you. I am looking to carry 2 small duffels for a weekend trip. It is the front left light, and it would make since if a nut is supposed to be on the other end I will have to check

Welcome, and I'll add check your valves right now. Ignore the manual on this one.
Check my valves? Yeah is there anything I should look out for ? Check? I want to put 60k miles more on this thing, and make it mine. The left turn signal just fell off of it unfortunately, and now I am scowering the internet how I could possibly install it myself. It sucks there's no clear answers with confusions comes anger I hate this feeling. I am going to purchase passenger bracket, and footpegs as OEM ones from Yamaha were more expensive than http://www.pjschurchofspeed.com/products/rizoma-passenger-peg-brackets-for-fz-10/ there cheaper. Cant believe the last person took them off for looks. The luggage racks have stubs, but I think there is something that goes on the stubs than luggage hooks to as well as there is a plug like an ac or something there under the passenger seat I am curious what that is for. I am so thankful there is a huge forum and so much to look through that the information has to be out there somewhere.

Hello! I am new to the community, and I just traded in my 2021 iron 883 sportster for my brand new fj-09 it unfortunately came with no passenger pegs, no hand guards, no taillight, no luggage racks to put luggage on. I am looking for black or red passenger pegs, and couldn't find any that would for sure fit my bike, as well I need link to purchase the racks if you guys can find it. I am going for a very comfortable set up for my passenger. Thank you guys for any help that can be offered.
What did you do to your FJ-tracer-gt today?
