turn signals

This custom 1986 GSX-R has been through a number of changes throughout its life, for both aesthetic and practical reasons. It’s also been through a storefront window, for more about that ride, click here.

Over the past couple of years, owner Dirk Vanzuuk has ridden this bike primarily on the track, with an occasional run on the street. So, anything not needed for racing was removed, including turn signals.

Now, he’s again using this as an everyday streetbike and needs to comply with those pesky rules of the road. Looking for an alternative to bolting back on all the bulky components, Dirk decided to keep that sleek and light streetfighter look by using parts that are compact and lightweight.

Having removed his former front turn signals and now needing new ones, I suggested the Kellermann Bullet Atto Turn Signals from Kuryakyn. These turn signals are ridiculously small. My first reaction when I saw them was to laugh. They’re tiny, easily the smallest turn signals I’ve seen. But I was shocked by the amount of light they produced. These signals fit Dirk’s stripped-down Gixxer perfectly: lightweight, tiny, and road worthy.

Our install is unique to this machine, so your install may differ slightly. Also, this light is universal for all 12-volt DC applications, but some applications may require use of a load equalizer that’s sold separately. Make sure to check the specs before ordering.
