I wanted to replace my turn signals and tail light with LED bulbs, rather than buying entire assemblies that I don't find add much in the way of appearance to the bike. The big orange blobs seem 'visible' and I wanted to make them even brighter. Not sure if they are actually brighter, but they are now LEDs. I had already replaced my headlight with and LED bulb, and figured, why not keep going.
In any event, translating the Yamaha part numbers to standard automotive ones was not obvious (to me), and I ended up ordering some bulbs that were incorrect, which coincidentally fit the tail light. All the bulbs I ordered were made my Auxito, ordered on Ebay. The tail light was an Auxito 7443 7440 6500K White Canbus bulb, with a narrow base that fit into the tail light socket slot, and work in either orientation. Rear turn signal bulbs were 1156 7506 LED reverse 6000K white, bayonet base, single bottom contact that fit the twist in bayonet base in the rear. The front turn signals were 1157 Reverse Tail light LED, 6500K white, offset bayonet base bulbs, two contacts on the bottom, that twist in (one way only) to the front turn signals.
I also replaced the turn signal relay with another Ebay buy, a 2-pin 12V Electronic LED Flasher Relay, stamped with a part number of LF1-S-PIN, MAX 150W (rating) that is potted, with a twisted lead, covered in protective plastic tubing, that ends in a connector compatible with our current relay. Literally a disconnect and remove the old one, and snap in the new one, that fits into the same rubber mounting as the original. Shop around on Ebay, or elsewhere, as Amazon and others carry the identical part, for a wide range of prices, that varied as much as twice what I paid for mine. They are a 'fixed' flash rate, similar to original, unlike a similar variable flash rate product available elsewhere, for three times the price.
Hopefully this may help anyone else who wants to simply replace their incandescent bulbs with LEDs, rather than buy new assemblies, or even replace the incandescent bulbs in their turn signals with standard automotive replacement ports available locally, rather than a trip to the dealership. There is also the part about the price of a pair of LEDs costing less than the list price at the dealership for a replacement incandescent bulb, but that is probably not the reason to go LEDs.
