Turn signals are more noticeable in amber. However, you cannot display amber running lights to the rear (law) . I have seen red lenses used with front bulb sockets to get rear running lights... does anybody see lights that flash red ? I mean really see them. Too close to the running / brake light. I use a an additional brake light that just lights on braking. I figure that they had it right with the "third brake light" on cars. It wasn't on before, now you see it. A light that suddenly appears gets attention. Take notice that the front turn signals don't just flash the extra element, they turn off the running light and flash the turn signal element. Off-on, not on-brighter.

Bike coming at you should be more visible than bike going away - or if the front looked the same as the rear you wouldn't know if the bike ahead of you was coming at you or going away - until it was too late.

Could this be due a broken fuse, or something more complicated? It is a '96 NH 750.
