I would love to, euro conversion kits aren't available here yet. I will have to wait I guess.

Ditching the reflectors is easy. Call AF1Racing and see if they can get the euro turn signals. No conversion is usually required, just get the euro lights, unplug and remove the ugly DOT stalks and use the connectors to plug into the euro signals. We just replaced the DOT stalks on the Sports City front with the euro turn signals which I think is actually more visible than the stalks being larger.

I love scooter west and think they do a great job, but watching that video the turn signals flashed red.
That (in my opinion) is neither legal nor safe. There's a reason turn signals are yellow and brake lights red. |

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108 allows rear turn signals to be either red or am ber in color ⚠️ Last edited by old as dirt on UTC; edited 1 time

It's illegal and unsafe anywhere but in the US. Where apparently the brake lights can double as turn signals - very, very confusing to outsiders, and IMNSHO effin' dangerous.
