Turn Signal Lense Question ??

[KY,Dave (AKA Misunderstood)]

1997 Tourer with Cobra light bar. The rear turn lenses are the 2 screw attachment and the front are the single screw attachment. Shouldn't they be the same. Have these been swapped put or was that part of the adding the Cobra light bar. Going to clear lenses and want to get the correct ones. TIA, Dave

From the factory, both front and rear lenses required two screws

That's what I thought. Was wondering if when installing the cobra bar you reuse your turnsignals ( I assume this as well) which leads me to believe that the PO must have changed these out for some reason. Thanks for the response.

The front ones on mine have a single screw that goes thru the front not underneeth as some show on the parts list at HDL.

If you remove the lens you may find the turn bucket has 2 threaded receivers.

If the front turn buckets match the rear in size, dimension & stem with rubber isolater odds are the P.O. only changed out the front lenses with an inappropriate lens for whatever reason.

The single screw housings are from a newer Valk (or another newer Honda). The PO must have gotten new ones for some reason.

Afaik, Cobra had 2 light bars, one for the older Valk´s, one for the newer with single screw. Perhaps, the PO got the bar for the newer Valk´s, for some reason, and needed to use the newer blinker version, to fit the light bar....
