The threaded steel tubes that are in turn signal lights keep stripping from the plastic housings. I've tried different types of signals lights with different types of tube (fully threaded and press-fit) and they All. Come. Loose. I'm not using the stock lights (you know, the ones on the KLR 650 that stick out almost as far as the handle bars) so they won't break every time it takes a dirt nap or the little one runs by and side-swipes it on his way out of the garage. Are there any turn signals with steel/alum housings that won't strip? Epoxy isn't working for very long. The front ones sometimes come loose just from riding. /sigh/

Hi All, I'm deleting everything here since there is already another area for mods to the KTM 500 EXC and I should've posted this over there to benefit the whole group. Before the comments grow too much, I'm deleting it here and will repost over there. Thanks much for the comments so far! http://dualsport-sd.com/forums/index.php?/topic/20328-ktm-exc-500-bestfirst-mods/ See you on the trails, Schweddy **************************************************************** Thought I'd share what I'm doing with the new bike in case anyone wants to leverage any of the ideas or has some good feedback if you've done any of this already. What follows are my build plans for the NEW 2015 500 EXC. Picking up the beast on Friday after work and like a kid at Christmas, Friday is taking forever to get here! Will warn the neighbors, set out the firepit in the driveway for a 24 hour burn, fill up the refrig with choice beverages and grub, turn on the tunes, and tell my family I'll see them in 32 hours. Let Schweddy’s build begin...
