It has been said that wiring in an incandescent bulb to your signals and hiding it in a safe spot will solve these issues also, keeping the self cancelling feature which is nice. This may be a less complicated route but i didnt want extra wires and bulbs stashed somewhere.

If your new signals are led's you will need a digital flasher to cure the hyper flash and splice a diode into the signal indicator light wire in the dash to keep all 4 from lighting at the same time. Going this route is not all that hard but you will loose the self cancel on the turn signal.

Got my Shorai in Jan. 2015. Drained it down a couple times and brought it back with a battrery tender. Still going strong. Never had that kind of life out of an acid battery. No mods needed to install, just use the enclosed packing to fill in the extra space in the battery box. No more dealing...

Nice looking bike I would agree and he is still around making Gen 1 systems and replacement parts if you happen to get some damage.

Sorry to hear about this. Hope your recovery is fast and full. I couldnt agree more on full gear head to toe. Dont leave home without it.

Things changed and everybody has to book their own room from a hotel of your choice. Some are at the Days Inn, Somerset Pa. I always request an email from the hotel with my dates and rates. Without that you could be SOL upon arrival.
