Posted January 8, 201015 yr Been looking for some replacement turn signals that are DOT approved for a cafe racer bike. Live in PA, assume i need DOT approved turn signals to get inspected (heard conflicting info, but i'd rather have bright lights to be safe on my '78 XS400). Thanks!, Ari not sure what will fit my bike: Here is a list of all DOT approved K & S turn signals, not sure how many wires,bulb filaments i should use (seems like dual filament=2wires, single filament=1 wire) http://www.kandstech.com/index.php?page=yamahaturn# Universal K & S DOT approved: http://shop.hyperformanceparts.com/productdetail.htm?productId=7913676&ez=K;amp;S~q=bidaa745zz~r=~&rand=41188
January 11, 201015 yr Author Here is response from K&S which is helpful: Wonder what 'running lights' are for dual filament... like those lights are always on (and used as flashers?)?, anyone do that? i forget whats standard to turn signals as my bikes been in shop . We offer DOT replacement turn signals, most for direct OEM replacement, some are universal. You can review the turn signal pictures on our website at www.kandstech.com -> products -> turn signals If you want running lights then you will need dual filament bulbs (2 or 3 wires depending on the model turn signal). If you don't want running lights then use the single filament bulbs (1 or 2 wires depending on the model turn signal). Our universal turn signals are single filament bulbs only. If you are looking for a small universal turn signal we recommend our 25-7000 series. If you want the smallest DOT turn signal available, then we recommend the 25-7500 series (both can be seen on the following; http://www.kandstech.com/index.php?page=universalsignals Since you are not going with the direct OEM replacement, we can not recommend a specific light for you, you would need to chose one based on the style and size that you would like for your bike. Please be aware that all of our turn signals are made for 12v systems.
