GY-5 front winkers

jeffhei · 04-07-2007, 11:00 AM

Has anyone changed the location of their front winkers? I don't like the way they are mounted to the handle bars. Does anyone have any ideas: brackets, routing the wires?

Hey, I am not sure where yours are but guessing hanging off the handlebar?

The dealer I got mine from puts them in a different spot, and I believe it even uses the same bracket... here is a picture for an idea...

They seem to work good there, ive dropped it a few times and I dont think it even touched them

If you want, maybe I can try and take a picture of where the wires go later on today

More pictures would be great. I don't think I have that black bracket that the winker connects to. I will post a picture of mine when my batteries are charged for my camera. I appreciate your input.

pumpkin · 04-07-2007, 07:05 PM

sorry so big, but at least you can see the winkers

pumpkin · 04-07-2007, 07:08 PM

fixed it

jeffhei · 04-07-2007, 07:31 PM

Hey pumpkin. Where did you buy them? Was it easy to replace the stock ones?

Jim · 04-07-2007, 08:20 PM

jeffhei, there is another spot you can mount the stock ones... I will post a picture later, but if you look at my picture there, look at the bolt about an inch away from the one its mounted on, the one on the silver part where the fork bolts into, it works on there too, we just got some news ones in and thats where they are... they work great there too, if this doesnt make sense I will have pictures later tonight.

Ok, here is how the front signals are mounted on my dads bike we just picked up, this is looking down the fork, should be pretty easy to see.

Good pic. Looks like they're safer than the stock location!

Pumpkin got all of his parts at Wheeling Cycle. They sell all the Zeta and Dirt Freak Products. They have a website and I believe you have to call to order. Tell Forest Sam and Jeremy sent you!
