New Buddy Turn Signals

Is there a reason why my turn signals work below the handles, but the ones above the front fender don't? Are they supposed to work?

You got sold a bike with bad wiring! Just kidding...

It's illegal for the bottom turn signals to be used, they arent "far enough" according to the law.

If you want those to work, you can take off the front of the legshield from the large screw and two small ones in the back, a drill helps on the front.

You can splice them together or use the OEM signals rather than the DOT handle bars ones, I took the handle bar signals off mine and used the originals.

You can also have both the lower and upper lights blink or have the uppers blink and the lowers be running lights.

Ya, but I wouldnt try wiring anything unless you have some basic wiring experience. If you want the lowers to only blink, there is a tutorial to do it in the technical forums.

Just make sure you have your license first before modding the bike, they inspect the bike before you take your test, which includes turn signals, if they find them modded, the bike auto fails the test.
