Yup can be replaced, that bit that holds the indicator up is a separate part. Looked it up in the parts manual (parts manual is from 2009 so not 100% sure would be same for yours). Just go to the dealer and order a "support, rear lamp mounting (2)" (guess they come in pairs.)

That's fine but I added an edit too my response telling you that the ones I have are not the round ones. They are the lager flat ones that come on the later model bikes. I'm not sure it they will work for you but will be glad to send them if you want me too.

One old saying is if it went on, it has to come off.
