    Guys,
    Has anyone replaced the stock front turn signals on a 5th gen with some lower profile ones and if so, any pics installed and who made the signal? I've been looking for a source. Also, if anyone has a source for a small rack that will mount above a seat cowl your help would be really appreciated!

    I have seen some clear front turn signals from a company in Germany but they appear to be just as big. I would also like to install lower profile lenses, I
    dont like the bugeyes that come stock either. eddie

    I have thought a lot about it, but one thing I can tell you is the big bug eyed lenses do help save some rash cause they act as sliders. (don't ask how I know)

    I think you are correct in your assumption, I guess that shows if you look hard enough you can say something positive just about anything. But dont you think the 5th gen bikes would look sooo much sleeker with a different lens?

    Oh, it's no assumption. <g> It's from a road test, twice. I still don't like the look of them, though. Didn't SAFE-T cover his and put signal mirrors on his bike? It seems like someone once posted a link to a carbon fiber cover for the signal holes also... Maybe at Thurm motosports?
