Hell-o!
Does anyone have any hint where to find clear-/smoked turnsignal lenses? It seem to be difficult...It may look great in my grey XX..
Thanks!

You might try Jaws.

OR.............................
you can try this modification to your stock turn signal stalks and use some Clear Alternatives turn signal light lenses. How to shorten the stock CBR1100XX rear signals.

He does not want the original turn-signals changed, he wants the turn-signals for the GIVI-rack changed. I am sorry, but it's not available. Contact the factory Clear-lights, maybe they will make them if demand is high-enough. Since GIVI has sold hunderds of thousands of these racks there should be a market for them.....

I have Givi Wing Rack turn signals. Don't you like the "brightness" and the visibility of them? Orange is very visible and therefore a safety advantage. Personally, I'd leave them but I am concidering led clear tail lights with the big XX in the centre. At this point that's why I didn't do the front turn signals. I'm not even certain it would be legal in BC to change the lighting. All this being said, good luck in your search. There is a way to wire the Givi turn signals to stay on when driving as additional driving lights.

Thank you all for the replies!
I asked the clear ones directly from the Givi, and they replied directly that they are not available.
Maybe I prefer to stay in the originals, because of the better visilibity than the minis. 
While waiting the summer, I'll install the hid-kit..
The Jaws..heaven for the XX enthusiast..! |
