early 80's style cb1100f signal conversion...hard?
#40
oh, sorry dubs. i've already re-assembled everything. I can't leave my bike in pieces, it's my only ride.

If you've ever taken apart your signals, you might have seen what i mean, though. the signal mounts via one bolt, which takes an allen wrench, and the wire running independently through a different hole. the aftermarket signals used a 6 point nut and bolt, with the wire running through the threaded bolt. that threaded bolt is roughly double the size of the original bolt that mounts the OEM signals. I am not interested in drilling or otherwise permanently modifying the bike, so that pretty much means these signals are a bust, sadly.

edit: for reference, these are the signals I got:

you can see the larger bolt coming out of them.
and these are a set of signals with a mounting setup that looks much closer to OEM (just guessing)
