That's insane. If you can find a methylene chloride based glue (used to glue acrylics), you may be able to glue the tabs back on.

| | Posted : 08 Nov 2015 - 15:12 Post title : Re: Turn signal lenses (Re: Tal) | | | Why don't you just get them at your dealer? They can order them and have them in probably a few days. I don't recall what i paid but i got 2 of them and they were something like 10 bucks apiece. Of course in Aust. they're probably $500  Seriously tho, just hit your dealer up. You won't get a discount online, in fact they'll likely cost more due to shipping.

| | Posted : 08 Nov 2015 - 15:35 Post title : Re: Turn signal lenses (Re: daz) | | | I've found my dealer to have identical costs as Bike Bandit. Additionally BB screwed me around when they said they shipped an item but I never got it after two weeks. tracking showed the shipping label was created but no additional scans. That tells me it never left their dock.
Took them about three weeks to admit it was lost or they just never shipped it. F them, they will be my last resort in the future.

Tal. This little problem was covered back in the early days  Just pull the whole lot of em out and stick a bit of Silicone in the little grove and put them back into the locator. then they will never come out.
One of the guys in the US I think it was was also putting a cable tye through the little hole in front locating pin on the cover and around the frame to stop the cover flying off as a few of them have also "Gone West"
We have a place called "Clark Rubber" over here where you can get an assortment of them little grommets.

| | Posted : 14 Nov 2015 - 07:51 Post title : Re: Turn signal lenses (Re: GerPa) | | | Great advice thanx Gerry....was thinking about securing the other grommets just in case they went west too...the silicone will do it just fine i'm thinking!I like the idea of a cable tie also...will be out in the garage in a few minutes . Had a fleeting thought of a hinge on the bottom but havn't gone there yet...thanx for those ideas !
