Tail Tidy / Turn Signal ?'s

jstrain · March 6th, 2011, 06:33 AM

The 2010 I just picked up had a Tail Tidy installed already. I'm noticing a couple issues with it.

First, I don't seem to have any rear signals. There aren't any physical turn signals on the rear, but I figured it was an integrated signal / brake taillight. If I flip on my blinker, nothing seems to happen on the rear. Any idea if a Tail Tidy fender eliminator kit is setup that way?

Also, when I use my blinkers, the stock front signals light up, but they don't blink. Just solid light until I turn them off.

Was the original install done incorrectly perhaps? The bike came with a set of Proton flushmount fronts, but I don't want to tackle that install until the current issues are sorted out.

I was just looking through that thread. I seems that my problem is that there aren't any turn signals bolted to the back of my bike

Looks like previous owner only did half the job and has left the rest up to you to figure out.

So it would seem. I think I've got the original fender and signals, but I love the clean look. Guess I'll look into a Bilelightz tail light

Check into PA safety inspection., I used to do them and what you're talking about would not pass inspection back then.
