I'm looking for the old style turn signal. In the 60s and 70s Triumph,BSA and Norton all had the same signals(at least in some of the pics I've seen). The rear of the signal looks like a bullet. Any Ideas?

That's what I went with, using a clear lens and chrome to amber bulbs. No more pumkin color.
Credit to Daz for the idea, and you can check his signature photo for a look see.

Hi,

The early lights were know as Lucas Flasher Lamps, and were fitted to the BSA and Triumph models in the 70's. The BSA/Triumph part# is 19-1067 (x4), the Lucas part# is 56147 (x4). These part#s are for the complete assembly which includes the stem.

I am not sure about the Norton #s, but I think the stem length is different between the front and the back.

Several old British bike part suppliers still offer the original Lucas parts, as well as cheaper pattern parts.

Hope this helps?
Geoff
:wink:

(fyi, the part#s are taken from my BSA Rocket Three parts list).

You can buy the Lucas style turn signals on Ebay for around $50 for a set of four. I had been looking into it until I shorten the stems on my factory signals and really like it.
