I need some options, opinions, advice. After I put the new fairings on I could not bring myself to install the stock front blinkers/running lights. I would like to retain the funtional running lights and signals so I'm not sure the LED flushmounts will work. I also hate the fit - don't wanna hear about no hot frying pan on my new fairings

$64 question is next:

Other than new stockers, are there any post-type mounted signals that any of you have used or seen that would do a reasonable job of replacing the stockers? I have the grommets for the fairing cut-outs so it will be stock in every way.

I have considered sanding my stockers down and just do the Colorite rattle can re-finish on them. What I would really like is something that's a little more sleek, a little more tucked and a little more 3d than the stockers.

Any ideas would be appreciated!

 

I would recommend against LED signals unless they are facing forward. LEDs are too directional and an LED flushmount would be useless and not seen at all from the front.

That said, the incandescent LP IV flushies are not that bad. Yes, they do require modification to fit between the inner and outer fairings, but you modify the signal itself on a hot pan, not the fairings. I understand though, the memory is the first thing that fades.

I had some really nice comments on my 1000RR LED signals at the SHOG Rally. They are made by Shock Racing but I don't know if they would be compatible with the Superhawk. The stems on those are quite skinny and would look out of place with the large hole in the fairing. But these signals are RIGHT THERE, RIGHT NOW. Nobody has any doubt which direction I'm going. They will also require use of an aftermarket flasher or flash equalizer from www.VFXkits.com.

 

Shockracing short stalks.

 

I have some really small oval ones that I got from lockhart. They just cover the hole in the fairing and are secured using a big plastic nut on the back.

Where is the best place to buy the LP's online? I've looked around and havent found any sites with them?

 

Checkout www.cyclegear.com They might have what you are looking for

Those won't work on the Superhawk. The stock signals mount to the inner fairings. The ones you posted are for newer bikes that have signals mounted on the outer fairing.

 

This is good ****. Obviously hacked on a box but if they can deliver the product I could give a ****. Do you own a set of these. Injection molding is sooo profitable after you make the mold.

I had an office next to some guys that had CNC machines and cut these molds all the time. I don't mind a little Dremel on the fairings to make it look right - short stalk - lense just clears the fairing - has a forward look - I'm all good. But it's one of those repairs that you can spend countless trips to run down parts. Or buying parts endlessly on the internet to get **** on like a catbox.

I was just looking for suggestions and I will check out the links and certainly appreciate all the advice.

 

And New Enough has a good face on the street and a good Texas company. No, I don't own stock.

 

Dude, those fit inside and mount to the recess of the outer fairing. Ours are just a hole in the outer fairing, thus nothing to mount to....unless you want to epoxy/fiberglass some sort of plate to the back of the fairing.

Here you go these will work on the Hawk

 

http://watsendesign.com, By far the best looking flush mount turn signals I have ever seen. Very bright front and rear.

 

After hounding the local stores I settled on these from Motrax. I got them at Cycle Gear.

The only angle they could look better is directly from the side.
