I saw that Superbrightleds.com was having a sale, and I was kinda waiting for it, so I got LEDS for all the turn signals on my 2013 NC700X. At the same time, I ordered smoked clear lenses for both front and rear from eBay...pretty reasonable at 16.99 for all 4- or so I thought .
The LED flasher I ordered ( listed as compatible for the NC) was not compatible. I had waited a month for it, and when it finally came, It was not a plug and play unit, so I elected to do the "pin 7 " mod to the existing flasher. I cut the case of the relay open, and cut the number 7 pin, to eliminate the hyperflash. Yes, it works, but it caused another problem- the back LEDS will not work- I had to switch back to the incendescents, 'til I can trouble shoot it.
Back to the smokedclear lenses. I had not really looked at them, except in passing, since I did not have the LED flasher to install. After installing the front LED's, I was anxious to put the new lenses on to see how they looked...OOPS......not even a close match. I looked on eBay on my phone, and sure enough, they are listed for the NC700X, and there is no way they will fit. I am posting a picture of both the lenses, one new one, and one old one. The seller claims it will fit, but I just don't see it happening. Any ideas? Am I overlooking something?
Thanks for your comments!
