    I just did my turn signals (front and rear). Got them at a cycle gear. tinycators $35 a set. I think they look a million times better than the stock. I still have to figure out how to wire the relay I bought cause I've got super fast flashers. its a universal fit and only has 2 wires red and black the OEM relay has 3 wires .. I've blown my acc fuse 2 times now.. hmmmm ..

    after doing some research it turns out i didnt need the over priced pos relay i bought at the cycle shop. i have a 99 jeep tj that just so happens to use the exact flasher relay (trico ep-26) that other people on other boards have used with success. i got it at an autozone for 8 bucks a few months ago when the turns on the creep went weird. i didnt need it but i kept it just in case.

    so there you have it. new turns that dont flash 500 times a second for under $80.

    have a great day. the sun is shining...time for me to ride!

    Looks great! How hard was it to wire up the relay, I was thinking about getting a set myself? How bright are they?

    Same here- i was looking on Sport Twin News (they sell parts also) and they have a relay that slows those things down to prevent epileptic seizures ;) was wondering if your fix worked that way.

    they are just as bright as stock... only smaller. and as i said imo look a million times better.

    the trico ep-26 relay plugs right into the stock wiring. so no cutting.. no splicing. the relay thats on the other place would work too. i just hate waiting for stuff to ship.

    I hated the way the front blinkers stuck out so far.
    So, I mounted the extenders on the inside.
    That shortened them to look the same as the back ones.
    Made me happy and cost nothing.

    I have dreams of getting someone to fabricate a couple bull horns.
    Want them turned down and forwards.
    Want them chromed or fade- black to Buell's "Sunset Orange".
    Want the tips clipped to mount red LED's.

    Anyone out there able to do this?
    I don't call my bike "Pinga" for nuthin'!
