Good to know..

Alex,

I agree with you on how hard the replacements are vs the originals.  My
original signals broke as well from age so I replaced them with new OEM, I
was afraid if I fell the aftermarket turn signals would not flex and would
break through the upper fairing.  Lots of Kawasaki models used the same
turn signal so spares are available on eBay.
