Dave,

Here's a look at the rear turn signals.  Keep in mind you know WAYYYYYY more about these than I, but it appears this is a complete tail light housing swap. I didn't look at the bulbs, but certainly this is all DOT.  I'm still going to probably do the LEDs right there on that vertical black strip.

Also, once again I am thrilled at how much this forum has taught me on the Savage that I can transcend onto other things...namely motorcycles...and the Ninja.  I had a little oil on the top of the Ninja crankcase around the breather hose. It wasn't leaking on the ground so I suspected it was just high-speed blowby that was finding it's way out. I cleaned things up, removed the breather hose to make sure it was not cracked, and it was in great shape.  Looked closer and there was oil on the top side of the breather hose, which made me think. I looked closer and saw the little hose coming off of the air box that also had oily residue and grime on it. What was it....The puke tube of course. I opened it up and a fair amount of oil came out. I don't think it was enough to fill up the entire puke tube, but it was a good bit. I suspect this had something to do with the oil starting to show it's face on the top of the case as it appeared to be coming from the bottom of the air box where the puke tube and breather hose all route into the bottom.  I guess the PO didn't clear it much, or he did and he just rode it a lot at high speed and it built up fast.  Anyhow, I of course drained the puke tube and cleaned up things real well so next time I ride I can keep an eye on things and see if I have corrected things.

Thanks Team!

There was some discussion on the ninjette board about the turn signal mod not meeting minimum DOT requirements for distance from center, or tail light, or something like that.  Hey, at least you can see those.  Much better than a lot of the stuff you see running around.

There's info on ninjette about what sockets, where to source, and a company that is still making the amber lens kit.
