None. Maybe again someday when Michelle won't worry.

Bought it from Scooterwest.com. The instructions were easy to follow with color pictures to show the way. Took about one hour start to finish. Love the final result. Should have done it sooner. Highly recommend this mod for all you LX and Fly owners. Not sure it works on the Fly but I bet they could tell you at Scooterwest.

Just wanted to pass that along,
Doug

When you install these Euro LX Turn Signals, do you still have the white running lights and how does that work. The site says it goes from a 10 watt to a 5 watt bulb. If its a dual filament bulb, then are the running lights yellow color instead of the white? Also, you say it comes with instructions. How easy is it to install and how much taking apart of the bike do I have to do (is it just some simple screws)? And, last, if I wanted to sell the bike, for whatever reason, could the original ones be put back without messing anything up? Thanks...looks great but I do like the white running lights~

The running lights are yellow, and it's a dual-filament bulb. All you have to take off is the horn cover, and the top of the headset. And it all just plugs in to existing connections -- should be very easy to return to original condition if you sell it.

I really like that center light. I may have to do that mod, too! Bet it would look great on my Black LX!

Hi there,
where can I order such a headlight?
It would look nice on my midnight blue LX!

It's for a GTS, and you'll have to cut a large hold into the LX cover for it to fit. Someone did a project report on it here, I think.

Hi Sieds,

It is not made for the LX, but is an accessory for the GT. IT is available from Motorsports Scooters (see banner) under the GT chrome accessories.

It is NOT a plug and play piece to add to an LX. You will have to cut away not only the vents in the horn cover, but part of the surrounding material as well. The profile of the LX cover is more pointed than the GT, too, so you'll need to deform the cover while gluing it in place.

Here are my photos from when I did it.
