Grew up, not needen no blinkers,
cause coming from a small town,
everyone knew where you were going!

(I'll post a photo, when I learn how to take one from my computer, and put it on, rather from the, 'net', which I know how to do).

Anyway, A Piece of "L" Aluminum.
Drilled two holes, the distance that my windshield rods are.
Attached to one side, a  little RPM gauge.
The other side, a cheep, 'lock', (for the numbers),
which I just slotted a piece of plastic,
Epoxied the lock in, then, 'stuck' to to the,
"dash' I made.
Then, a little LED, Red, light, which I ran the wires to inside of the headlight housing. and hooked them up to the front turn signals.
With a, 'Rectifier'.
So now when ether, Turn is on, (ether way),
I can see,  a RED light blinking,
Without, having to 'look down',
and taking my eyes off, 'where' I am going.

(Did this on other bikes, but their was only, ONE,
'factory' blinking light. So it was a easy matter of just taping into
the one light, with the bright LED  Red light.)

Using a, 'rectifier' came from the EXCELLENT Knowledge,
from this site.

Just read it all, and instead of using a, 'buzzer', use a light.
(And I eliminated the extra, 'Brake Light', cut off)

I always thought a rectifier, converted AC to DC.

Apparently, it Also acts as a,  'One Way', for current.
So, got a, small one, Less then 1/2 the dia of a dime.
Output, 1.5 Amp DC volts, which was plenty for a .2 LED Amp light.

Of course, you could just use 2, 'indicator' lights placed some where.
One for each side.

Just a thought for those, whose hearing is perhaps impaired,
and would rather see a light !

Sure thing.. spend 9.69 to have it shipped right to YOUR DOOR!!!

Or.. just go down to Radio Shack..  if there is one close by.

$1.49 plus tax.
(Yes, you could buy two diodes instead, but it is cheaper to buy the rectifier)


Yep.. Kuryakyn makes great stuff, but you pay for that name.

It worked !

(Just could not see it in, 'preview' mode.

Here is the LED I used.
