I got another pair of rear turn signals and mounted them on either side of the headlight.

Can't help with CR signals - but love my CRG mirrors - they have 2 sizes. A bit $, but really well made.

If you want small turn signals, these are about 1" long. I drilled a hole in the black plastic about an inch behind the headlight on each side.

I run crg lane splitters on the weighted / slotted barends. That helps reduce vibrations in the bars, gives me the wide angle mirrors, and gives me the fold up ability.....love it!

front signals I haven't tackled yet but my intention is to turn the front running lights into indicators. Still looking for a DIY on that

I bought my bike used and the original owner included a set of CRG knock-off mirrors with the bike but the stock mirrors were still installed. I removed the stock bug antennas, and using the CRG knock-offs and a set of Oberon bar end indicators I ended up with a setup that looks essentially like the following (no pictures of my own setup yet):

I'm in the process of doing the same thing. I like the mini turn signals. Where can I get a pair?

If any of you are getting rid of good condition CR mirrors...let me know. Happy to give them a good home.

Thanks! I just ordered two sets. I have an 09 Cr salvage bike I've been putting back together, almost done, except mirrors & signals, couldin't find any signals I liked til now. Probly going with bar end mirrors from American sport bike. Then the fun stuff- DMV salvage inspection, fees, paperwork etc.

Thanks for taking the time to put up pics guys I appreciate it. I think I'll go with the CRG mirrors and the handle bar weight signals. I like that look.
Thanks again!

Ya, I like them. They signal from both sides of the indicator so people in front see it as a normal indicator and people behind see it as an extra indicator. Again, not my bike, but it gives you an idea of forward/behind visibility:

I have some K&S led bar end indicators if you are interested. $25 shipped, they are $55 new. I was going to install them but they didn't work with the mirrors I bought. I don't have the hardware. They need 2" x 10/32 socket head bolts and spin lock nuts. I bought some 2 1/2" bolts but they were too long.

Like this in black.

All of the Oberon kit is excellent quality stuff ......not sure if they have any dealers across your side of the pond but you will seriously struggle to find better quality products.

Should be able to get Oberon products from the Blue Streak Racing website. They are located in Ontario
