    That's what I was thinking about doing. There has to be room for two single LEDs. I might try that later. I guess this is only a problem on '79 Specials?
    1979 XS11 Special (slightly modified)
    dubbed the "Mad Mosquito"

    MikesXs Pod Filters
    MikesXs 35k Coils
    8mm plug wires
    42.5 Pilots 142.5 Mains
    (Carb tune by GNEPIG Performance)
    Kerker 4-into-1
    Shaved emblems
    Progressive frt springs lowered 1.5"
    Progressive 11.5" rear shocks
    Harley Dyna rear fender chopped
    Custm side mt tag (apparently illegal)
    Custom Dual Headlights
    Lots of time and hard work.

      Hello,
      I have the 79SF also and I was wondering if adding a schottky diode inline with each front led turn signal and useing 2 polarized leds in the pod signal indicator would fix that? Maybe even a 2 color 3 prong led instead of 2 individuals??

      The electrical engineers here might come up with something....

        LED blinkers to work on the Special

        Hey Guys,
        Kuryakyn came up with the same idea as us, ready for install... This should allow the Special indicators to remain and still allow the LED's to work right.....

        Diode Kit for Metric Bikes #4709


        This kit is required when installing L.E.D. lights as turn signals on a motorcycle with a single turn signal indicator light. If this diode kit is not installed, power will back feed across the indicator light and all turn signals will flash at once.
