  • Brake light with turn signals

    Has anyone bought a brake light w/ turn signals already in them that fit in the stock location on our bikes?

    Im thinking of removing the ones I have on my bike, as the saddlebags I bought would fit alot better if they could slide back some more

    Hey Andy,

    I've seen alot of the "full baggers" that have the rear signals moved to the brake or license plate light location, at the end of the fender.

        The ones I have seen use the stock lights, just relocated. Dig through some of the for sale bike threads and I am sure you will find some.

            These are my rear indicators. IIRC they are off an 80's Suzuki trail bike. I had to make the brackets to fit them and they could be made a little shorter but my soft saddlebags fit neatly over the top of them, and they can still be seen from the rear. The lights sit in the rubber pocket you can see which means they'll bend in a little further if my bags are full to overflowing. I put em on when I bought the bike since the PO never seen the need for rear indicators and threw the originals away.

              Not bad.

              my father in laws bike has a turn signal/brake light all in one, but its on a HD.

              I like the cleanliness of only having one light, Im still searching for that.

                An "all in one" may work, but in my state, it would be a fixit ticket!!! California needs about 1' between the turn signals to be "legal". That is the reason most motorcycles have a "stalk" the turn signals are on.
                You COULD put on two RED lens rear turn signals, with 1157 bulbs and a 4 to 3 trailer converter. There is a thread about this someplace close to here, if you search.

                  This off a Honda Elite 150 moped, the brake light seems kind of small.

                    Most our baggers use this item off ebay.

                    Item #120397425872

                    it is an original option, you can't buy them from parts stores.
                    Nice day, if it doesn't rain...

                      Thanks
                      The one on ebay would work I guess.

                      I'm still keeping my options open.

                      Figure if I can find what i want, I could pass my factory ones on to someone that needs them.
