Signal light button

[007]

I‘ve just purchased a 2021 NC750 here in Victoria BC, and absolutely love it.
I‘ve been driving for over 50+ years and the signal light button location is driving me crazy!
Has anyone come up with a way to make it larger so it sticks out farther than the horn button?

Thanks

Go to a hardware store and buy a clear stick on button for furniture.
Put it on the signal switch, it will raise the height if it.

I did that for my horn button. LOL

I have carpenter thumbs, and keep hitting the horn button.
Good Idea, I’ll give it a try
thanks

That is a good idea!

I tilted the whole left hand side control assembly forward a bit, making the signal light button higher. Hope doing this and adding the stick on button will make access easier. Looking forward to trying it out tomorro.

I came up with another idea. Take a pet finger toothbrush, cut it off just below the brush section. Turn it inside out, insert a small round disk 3/8” diameter x 1/4” high and slip it on. Be sure to put the brush side at the bottom - this helps it hold on better.
We’ll see how well it holds on.

Went for a short ride before the rain chased me home - probably only 30ks (20 miles).
The new blue larger button + forward control tilt does make a definite improvement.
Sure do wish the horn switch was where the signal button is located.

This is only my 7th (probably my last) motorcycle and the license plate is ~##007

Prior to 2014 many Honda bikes had the turn signal switch in the middle horn on bottom. My 2013 CB 1100 and my ST 1300 both had this arrangement.

Come 2014 I bought another CB 1100 only on this model the horn was in the center and turn signal on bottom. So I put a 2013 switch on my 2014 CB because I kept turning on the turn signal when someone would pull out in front of me, and hitting the horn when I wanted to signal a turn. In 2018 I bought an FJR and it had the turn signal in the middle horn on the bottom so everything was cool. Then in 2021 I traded the FJR in on the NC and geezalou the horn was in the middle and the turn signal on the bottom again, which was now the opposite of my 2014 CB 1100 with the 2013 switch, so I put a 14 switch back on the CB 1100 so that both bikes would be the same.

In 2003 @ 53 years old I told my wife I was buying my last motorcycle, a 2003 Triumph Bonneville. I think I've bought about 7 or 8 since then. Now at 73 I would like to tell you I've bought my last motorcycle, but I wouldn't count on it lol, I keep wearing them out.

Great to see another 73 year old guy still riding and enjoying it. It’s not easy finding fun things to do!

Never mind a bigger lever why can’t bike manufactures build in Voice Te point I‘ve just purchased a 2021 NC750 here in Victoria BC, and absolutely love it.

Never mind a longer switch. How about manufactures building in ad standard voice activated control such as turn signals, horn, lights and hazards

Went for a 250 km ride yesterday with an ex-colleague (also retired) and his 86 yo father on a Harley...

Wow. No male in my family has made it past 79. Would love to still be riding at 86, but have serious ( genealogical) doubt that is in the cards.

My maternal Ukrainian born grandfather who survived the First World War, got out of Soviet occupied Ukraine with my grandmother and mother in 1930 (just before Holodmor) lived to be 90.
I probably can’t afford to live that long!

3 rides this week with the larger Signal light button and all is good.

I didn’t ONCE hit the horn button!

The rubber toothbrush tip is staying in place very well.
my 2 cents
