Court, Did you get the signals as expected? | ||
| Court |
Thank you for the reminder. I need to follow up. I think I placed an order and paid for them but haven't seen anything yet. I'll be back in New York City on Monday, will check and follow up. Thanks again for the reminder. | ||
| Johnod |
Court did you get these?? What's the story? | ||
| Johnod |
Court, how did these work out? | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
I'm going to order them from bike bandit come Monday (maybe a cyber Monday coupon). | ||
| Johnod |
Let us know how they work out please. Apparently Court's not gonna tell us. | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
Turn signals are on order from BB. Waiting for a estimated second week of December delivery date. I used the cyber Monday coupon code but it wouldn't discount oem parts. I assume the margins are thin there. I will post photos when they arrive. | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
I got the signals today. I ordered four kits. Apparently a kit included left and right signals. So I got 8 signals !! I may return the other 4 or someone can buy them from me. The problem is they aren't the originals. They are the updated ones like on the S3 with the smooth housings. They are genuine triumph so likely good quality like Buell oem. Stinks the old style  I'll load some pictures. | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
And they have a white connector, so ill have to snip and put on bullet connectors. Idk, may send them all back and get some cheaper S3 signals off of eBay and just keep an eye out for some S2 original style.      | ||
| Johnod |
Well that's too bad, I hoped this was going to be good news. | ||
| Ratbuell |
How close are the cosmetics to the buell signals? I may be interested in your extras... | ||
| Ebutch |
Look to be S3 parts !  | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
I may just send them all back. If I'm going to drop close to 2 bills on turn signals they might as well be close to original as possible. These are $160 shipped to the US: https://www.ebay.com/itm/291350199210 Here's some more pictures. You're welcome to buy them all from me for what I paid $45.95 x 4. That way you won't have a two week wait. Just let me know.       | ||

Look what I just found! - Need to makes some measurements when I get home but this sure looks like our OEM stem..... www.MGCycle.com - "rubber stem for turn signal with mounting post Mille 1000S Cal 3 [Part Number: 28751634]" $11.65 ea.  | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
I'm going to say the stalks look a bit long and the lines are in the middle rather than the end. But... take what you can get it seems like. I bought 4 off the eBay link from Europe and I'm sending the triumph ones back to BB. I'll post those when they arrive in a little more detail. | ||
| Johnod |
What ebay link please? | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
I bought the last 4 of these. The seller may have some more in another auction. https://www.ebay.com/itm/291350199210 | ||
| Tigermann |
William, Looks like that seller has more now - please post picture when you get them. They should be the slightly longer (1/2") than the S2 units but otherwise the same. I'd like to see what you get before spending the $ | ||

Go too triumphmotorcycles.com (1994 Sprint turn sig.) All dif. lengths.  (Message edited by ebutch on December 15, 2016) | ||

Tigerman: Great work !  | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
The front ones have long stalks he has listed, these "rear" are short stalked. It looked like all the s2 signals were short stalked. | ||
| Jerrys2 |
It appears from what I can figure out, the part numbers for the rear are 2700092-T0301 2700091-T0301 These would be the shorter stalks. I can't tell if the signal is the same, though. At $46.00 ea, you'd have close to $200.00 in the deal, then how long do the stalks last? They are made in Italy, the rubber ain't the greatest. I made a set of stalks out of Urethane, can't tell the difference, but I haven't found a way to cure the urethane yet. (140 degrees for 4 to 5 hours) | ||

Looks like same stalk(expensive) : http://www.mgcycle.com/index.php?main_page=product _info&cPath=37_156&products_id=3260 Or I will chop this (cheap): http://www.mgcycle.com/index.php?main_page=product _info&cPath=37_156&products_id=3319 or this: http://www.mgcycle.com/index.php?main_page=product _info&cPath=37_156&products_id=3261 (Message edited by s2forever on December 21, 2016) (Message edited by s2forever on December 21, 2016) (Message edited by s2forever on December 21, 2016) | ||

So it looks like there are three lengths of these stems - the OEM S2, the slightly longer Triumph rear, and much longer Triumph Fronts. The stems from mgcycle are the long version, and the California III signal from mgcycle seems to have the S2 short stem (but you need to buy the whole signal). I think our current best replacement option is the complete Triumph rear unit currently being sold on eBay from the UK as noted by Williamscottrobertson above, if they really arrive as pictured, that is. | ||

Anyone willing to try this? (Shipping to my country may cost a fortune, if they do, at best) : http://www.mgcycle.com/index.php?main_page=product _info&cPath=37_156&products_id=3261 | ||
| Brother_in_buells |
S2forever ,here are the same and a bit cheaper http://www.stein-dinse.biz/Complete-partlist/Unsor ted/Indicator-holder-with-hook::177896.html?langua ge=en If you have problems with ordering ,i'm okay with ordering them for you and sending them your way! | ||
| Tigermann |
Sangsu, How would you mount that stem - it has a hook instead of the thru-bolt? | ||
| S2forever |
I do not know. I would cut it to 3.5 cm and see what I can do. Anyone willing to order one for me so that I can figure it out? Lol. Or someone with a lathe can do it better, I hope. | ||
| Brother_in_buells |
Using some M8 threaded pipe could do the trick! Or drilling a piece of thread on a lathe and put that through the extension piece. | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
Ok I got the euro signals in the mail. Boy are they nice! Original style, rubber stalks, plastic housings. All looks correct. My originals were replaced with ugly HD chrome bullets, so I don't have originals to compare. But all in all, I'm going with these. I will clip the connectors and put on 7mm bullet connectors. Unless... I can find the male side to this connector on eBay. Pictures below:        |
