    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

substitutes for front turn signals

Are there other reasonably priced turn signals that would substitute for the 2 wire stock 12V @23W signals in my 1983 GS 1100GL?
 
Take your pick -- there are about 14 pages of approximately 1,279 kinds of turn signals in the Dennis Kirk catalog.

It depends more on what look you want. Electrically they all work the same.

Keep in mind that if you switch to LEDs they don't draw enough electricity to trigger most flashers, so you'll have to use an electronic flasher or add resistors.
 
What is it about your turn signals that makes you want to replace them?

There were no front signals on the bike when I bought it. Thanks for the tip Bwringer. I guess by asking it I showed what a newbie I am. I'd be lost without this site. Jim M
