What model are the turn signals from?

There has to be a parts fiche on the net some where that will give the information.

I use this hose: https://www.mcmaster.com/5235K55/ It's soft and flexible enough that it can be greased up and inserted through the metal holder fairly easily. I cut the end at a sharp angle which aids in inserting it through the holder.

Great info! I ordered one.  It must be a lot softer than Gates rubber if you were able to cut the end at a sharp angle.

Unfortunately, I used thread gauges at three different stores.  The only one that would accept it was a 10-32, but 10-32 screws will not fit into the turn signal.  That is the reason I posted the question here.  I hoped someone might have had to replace one and would know.

I mean, we CAN know. All it should take is a proper thread gauge. No?

I think the hardest issue to reconcile is the indentations in the front/bottom corners of the Norge tank, usually covered by the front fairing.
That is the main drawback to removing the large front fairing and going the single headlight option.
