  • Red lenses

    Are there red lenses available for the Standard rectangular turn signals? I want to turn 2 fronts fixtures with the dual filament bulbs into running lights/ turn signals in the rear.

    Hey Greg,

    I checked Partsnmore, MikesXS, DennisKirk, oldbikebarn, they show the OEM yellow signal housings and the first 2 showed replacement lenses, but again only amber!? Perhaps someone else knows of another source!?

        I've looked over the years. Found one site that had them, tried adding them to the cart, and it was out of stock. They've been removed from the site since. I'd like them for my rear's, as I use all four as running lights.

          A couple years back I found the red lenses for my full dressed G, not sure if it was the same seller but I may get a spare set since he has a few left.

            They look amber in the pics. I sent him a question asking if they were red for sure and if he'd combine shipping on 2.

            Thanks John.

              I bought the last two. Can anybody verify if there was any form of this bike that used RED lenses? The part number only cross-references to the XS1100, and that is of the amber lens.

                  Red lenses.

                  Hi all.
                  If you give me till tomorrow I can ascertain how many sets they still have at Cahill's Yamaha where I work a couple days a week. I did mine a couple of years ago and they had 3 or 4 sets. Don't think they have been sold. I'll let you know tomorrow. Price will probably be better.

                    Hey Alfredo- Awesome that you have an inside source to your motorcycle parts. I believe Greg and I bought the last two sets though. I've been looking for these for a few years now! Glad I got them. Thanks for the links Greg and Schming!
