Turn Signal Options

[Jackson]

Yamajank, thanks for this information. I may just order a pair as I don’t like the way that most lights stick out from the fairings.
I’ve just received delivery of a very small pair of lights to replace the pumpkins. I haven’t installed them yet, but they seem good quality and are quite bright. I chose the black ones with clear lenses. You can see them here:

Like you, I am concerned about the visibility of small lights in the stock locations. I may get LED strips for the hand guards which will have white lights for the daytime running lights and amber for the turn signals. I’m thinking about ordering these ones:

They may not be as elegant as your solution, but should be very visible. Good luck with your project.

After finding a pair of old protons that were scratched up from a tip over, I decided to sand down the lenses and repurpose them to replace my rear stock signals.  First, I took apart the stockers and snipped the wires close to the bulbs.  Next I used the stock base and mounted L brackets to attach the old protons to my aftermarket fender eliminator.  Finally I re-connected the stock wire to the proton lights and plugged them back in under the seat.  I love that the lights are extremely bright.

Another satisfied customer.  The TST 2 PIN LED FLASHER RELAY GEN 2 worked like a charm.  It took 2 minutes to replace the OEM relay which is located under the rider seat as shown below.

  I just replaced my front stock signals with Proton 500's.  Rather than explaining I included pics.  I love the lights.

Do you have any tips for separating the inner panel from the outer panel without breaking the tabs trying to remove the toothed washers?

Honestly,  i just used a flat head screwdriver and slowly pried them off.  Don't be afraid to bend the toothed washers when removing.  I then flattened the washers with a pair of pliers and re-used them.

Check out the OEM turn signals from the 2021 MT07.   $33 a piece from Ron Ayers.  That's the route I'm going.

I would think that signals from the MT07 as well as MT09 and SP and Tracer 9 will all work, they all look to be identical for 2021.

I did the factory Super Tenere LED signals on my FJ a few years ago, and suffice it to say that they were MUCH more than $33 a piece.   Assuming those MT07 signals work, that looks like a fantastic way to go...   Keep us posted on your progress.

Will do.

 @CJ3cyl  Are the 2021 MT-07 LED front turn signals also running lights?

I believe so. The signals are on back order, though.  I haven't even received them yet.

I posted my led signal install from a few months ago in another thread.  I just put 1600 miles on them last week and they worked great.  They are more visible than I would have expected from small strips.  They riding lights and brake light features are nice as well.
