Front Turn Signals?

[photoman002]

I recently purchased a 2011 FZ6R and am in dire need to replace the stock turn signals in the front of the bike? can anyone recommend a nice looking set of turn signals where I dont need to purchase any additional parts for installation/operation?

dire as in you don't have any on the bike at all or the factory ones are so ugly that they cause you physical and emotional pain?

if the former, i have a set of front i took off of my bike.

if the latter, you can purchase flush mounts on ebay all day long that have the factory connector on them and are PnP.

9i personally bought a set of smoked led flush mounts and modified them with some diodes and resistors so that i didn't lose the running/turn functionality of the oem lights.

if i'm not mistaken almost all of the ones on ebay are going to be a 2 wire install which will be turn only. the oem's are 3 wire running/turn.

dont forget to replace the flasher relay with one designed for led's as they may not draw enough current combined with the rears to flash at the proper rate.

I saw the protons and they look awesome. did you need to buy the resistors or anything with them?

i made my own as i have tons of breadboard/resistors/diodes etc, lying around.

most people just plug em up and go, i just had to tinker a bit. its in my nature.

You don't need resistors for them to work. They DO blink faster than the standard flashing rate, but you can normalize it by installing a LED Flash Relay. Also the protons are installed by splicing the bike's turn signal wires. If you don't want to splice you can get OEM connectors like I did!

A little pricey but well worth it!

I posted a first impressions and how-to install video on the Proton Flush Mounts a little while back. Hopefully it will help you decide:
