Default Who is not running front turn signals...

I have been debating this and have looked and looked at some of the t/s relocation kits and various options out there and just don't really like anything available. I have the Custom Dynamics integrated turn signal tail light and plan to keep that ( I feel it's better to bee seen from behind ). I guess I am curious to know if anyone has had second thoughts after removing the fronts.

i wouldnt remove the fronts. legally its required in every state. and its one more excuse the idiots have for claiming they didnt see ya.

edit: im wrong. there are states that dont require them.



if you want to get rid of the bullets. you might look at some mirror integrated signals. or just some fork ring led's that blink.

I removed mine, looks way better and is legal in Texas. No blinkers are required, but if removed you are supposed to use hand signals.

I don't run them. There are actually quite a few states that don't require them...

There are some smaller led front sigs out there, I think squidhead just put some on his bike. Having said that I threw mine in the garbage 5 years ago and don't regret it. I keep waiting for the fix it ticket but I have yet to be pulled over ( knock knock) The integrated tail lights, at least in California, are not "legal" anyway because you can't see them from the side. Might at least keep you from being pulled over but still not "legal". IMHO the bike looks much cleaner and streamline without turn sigs

Turn signals and reflectors were the first thing I took off my bike when I bought it...

I pulled the front and rear off my sporty. Sometimes less is more.

I am, but I hate them. I just found the small ones that DK sells so I'll be ordering a set for the Dyna and the Sportster. Too many tards around here already claim they can't see you, no reason to give them one more excuse.
When I got hit in 09 the guy claimed he didn't see me, I had 3 tail lights, a neon yellow Icon vest on and a red metal flake helmet (on my way to the base), he wouldn't have seen me if I had a strobe light on and was towing a float full of strippers.

Yeah, so apparently sigs or no sigs wouldn't make a difference ;-)

Yep, but if you don't have them it will be the cause...................whether it was or not.
