I relocated my front turn signals to a Ma's cycle bracket on the fork mount. I used a Harley standoff. They work ok but they vibrate a little. I've been looking for a light weight and slightly smaller signal that won't vibrate so much. Any suggestions?

I attached mine with 1 inch chrome spacers instead of standoffs, works pretty well with little vibration... I think most of the vibration comes from the bracket itself only being bolted by the two bolts in the middle. As for lighter signals, not sure, lots of people do small silver bullets.

I think I'm eventually going to put Silver Bullets on instead. Thanks for the help.

No problem. I kind of like the spacer look because it matches the rear stalks better, ya know>?

I put the Kuryakins on, they have the signal on the back of the mirror and rear bullits.
You have to pull the bulb for the turn signal indicator or all will flash at once. (light emitting diodes)

Order Kuryakins, can't wait to put them on. I should have bought them right of the bat instead of screwing around with the Triumph pumpkins.

How much hassle is it to put the turn signal mirrors on?
Do you need a special load equalizer or is it just a matter of cutting the old turn signal wires and solder them on the wires from the mirrors?

Turn signals? If it doesn't make it look good and run faster do you really need it?
