relocated blinkers
Well, I felt froggy today so I relocated my blinkers as shown below:
you can see I put them on the top fork clamb bolt thingy: I still need to tweak them a little to get them perfectly even but I was by myself without a helper and did the best I could. |

Damit man! You beat me to it!
They look much better now. I actually ordered a set of short stems that arrived today, and I was planning to put them on next week, since I'm heading up to the mountains this weekend. I made brackets that will mount under the two small bolts on the guage bracket on each side. I considered the location you've used, and if I run into a problem I may use that location. The stock locations make the signals the ugliest part on the bike, IMO. Graphics aside Well done, Zap!

Looks good, that's where the dealer put mine stock on the gy5, but a lot seem to come where your's were... definitely nicer where you put them

yea mine came stock like that, my blinkers are also a little smaller and not as bulky.

On my gy5 they were slightly uneven as well, it was always my intention to make them match, but I never got around to it
By the way, the bike looks pretty good like that, definitely customized, the seat cover, sticker, etc... Good work

Wal-Mart. You may have to go to a couple. Find one that has an ATV section. Might be able to call and ask around.
