New turn signals, things to look out for.
« on: May 06, 2015, 04:57:00 PM »
Hey guys,

Changing up the turn signals on my Guzzi LeMans 3, the current ones are beat, literally hanging off, so its time for an upgrade.

Looking at these as they would complement the tank, aluminium casing etc, and the reviews are good also.

There are 2 options on this light, a single filament and a dual filament. Is this something that would affect the operation of the lights, or is it just that one would be brighter than the other?

Thanks

Single filament is your basic blinker.
Dual filament allows you to have running lights, you need the wiring to use them though.

Probably a safer bet then going with the single.

Whatever you go with make sure they are large enough and bright enough to be easily seen.

This.

I just went LED bar end signals. So small and ridiculously hi vis. Great in my urban environment.

Reviews of the one above seem favourable, so I will go with a set of them.
