Headlight bracket.

http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/product_c ... Id=&mmyId=

Anybody ever used one of these, or know how well it would work, since the parts I need for this bike seem to be damned near impossible to find?

 

You mean like these: Ebay

 

The one from nxpowersports is the ony "correct" one....
It is an oddball unit....
One of the main reasons I'd like to ditch mine , that and it's bent.

The Dennis Kirk ones look like they're worth a shot....

 

Yeah, mine's bent too. I might give the one's from Dennis Kirk a try.

 

K&L supply offers some exactly like those on Dennis Kirk. Unfortunately you have to go to an authorized dealer to order them.

 

I used some off of a cb 500 mid 70s they worked great!

 

If I use one of those, where can I put the turn signals? Any suggestions for aftermarket signal mounts or do you think I can mount them to these?

 

Good question, you may need to fab up something for that, or swap out for new signals

 

I'd love to, but I don't have access to the kinds of tools I'd need for that.

One way to find out I guess...

 

I was able to use the stock turnsignal mounts on my bike, I dont know if they are diffrent on a Maxim.

 

Has anyone tried to use these signals
chrome signals
I just got a xj750 Seca (first bike) and am looking at the options while it is in the "repair" stage and I was wondering about the headlight brackets also.

 

I carry the stock style turn signals and their mounts (new), as probably have a good used headlight bracket for that puppy......


TURN SIGNALS:

The stock Yamaha turn signals on these bikes are a "beauty in the eye of the beholder" kind of thing: either you love 'em or hate 'em. Most people don't object to the size of them....in fact, when it comes to turn signals, you want the cager who's heading towards you---you know, the one who is on the cellphone who's also fiddling with the radio dial and swilling coffee at the same time---to NOTICE you, and a large, bright turn signal is a big advantage here. But they do stick out quite a bit more than most people would prefer, looking like big alien ears of some kind........well, nothing's perfect, is it?

We can help restore your flashing bunny ears with a variety of high-quality OEM or aftermarket parts.



Complete Turn Signal Assembly:


Brand new, exact reproduction front or rear TURN SIGNAL ASSEMBLY units are now available. Finished in the correct mirror-polished chrome plating, or the smooth-textured, low gloss black finish, these complete, assembled, pre-wired DOT-approved assemblies bolt up directly in place of your stock unit, using the same hardware and mounting points as the originals. Lead wire colors are different from original, but the wires include the correct male bullet connectors so that they will plug directly into your existing main harness terminals.

Most model turn signals are available in both a two-wire and a three-wire design. Two-wire signals operate only as flashers (turn signals), while the 3-wire design signals operate both as running lights and as flashers (3-wire signals were originally used only on the front of XJ700 and XJ1100 models). If you desire, you can upgrade your standard 2-wire "flashers-only" to the three-wire design and have your turn signals also function as running lights (check with your local laws to determine legality of doing such a modification).

All turn signals are complete assembled units, and contain the housing, the wire harness, the lense, lense gasket, and a standard incandescent bulb.



HCP7557 Aftermarket DOT-approved complete TURN SIGNAL ASSEMBLY, low gloss black rectangular housings, 2-wire design (flashers only), with "wrap-around" rectangular orange lense is correct for all of the following models: XJ650 Turbo rear, and XJ750 Seca front or rear. See the NOTES below regarding these turn signals. Each:

a) these turn signals are also the same shape and fitment for the XJ900RK models, but they have the black housing rather than the chrome housing used originally on those models.





HCP7558 Aftermarket DOT-approved complete TURN SIGNAL ASSEMBLY, low gloss black rectangular housings, 3-wire design (flashers and running lights), with "wrap-around" rectangular orange lense can be used on all of the following models: XJ650 Turbo rear, and XJ750 Seca front or rear. See the NOTES below regarding these turn signals. Each:

[b/]NOTES ON HCP7558 SIGNAL UNITS:[/b]

a) these turn signals are also the same shape and fitment for the XJ900RK models, but they have the black housing rather than the chrome housing used originally on those models.

b) these turn signals are the same design and style as the stock signal units, which were originally a 2-wire (flashers only) design. The 3-wire design of these signals allows them to be used as running lights as well as perform their flasher function. Models not originally using their turn signals as flasher lights can be converted by tapping into the rear brake system running light circuit (usually a blue wire) and running that wire to the running light wire lead on these turn signals. Check your local laws for the legality of using running lights on vehicles not originally equipped with them.

C) These turn signals come with a flexible black plastic protective sheathing over the wire harness lead wires. However, this sheathing is difficult, if not impossible, to force through the rubber turn signal mounting stays as used on the XJ650 Turbo and XJ750 Seca (rear) models. Thus, we recommend that you remove the sheathing from the wire harness lead (it slides off) before installation. However, be aware that once the sheathing is removed from the wire leads, it is very difficult (if not impossible) to re-install it! The sheathing will fit through the front (only) turn signal mounting "covers" used on the XJ750 Seca models.

Turn Signal Mounting:

tsm1) OEM and aftermarket replacement turn signal-to-frame MOUNTING HARDWARE perfectly replaces missing, worn, or incorrect stalks, stems, and fasteners. All items work with both our original or reproduction turn signal units.

NOTE: the signal STAY is the chrome or black rubber stalk or stem that attaches to both the turn signal housing "neck" and runs to the adapter bracket or directly to the frame mounting point. These stays are hollow, and thus allow the signal wires to pass through them. The CINCH BOLT and related hardware items are what attach the above stay to the turn signal housing to lock the stay to the turn signal.
