When I was 14 the dream bike was a Kawasaki KE 125. Street and trail model.

I found a non-running and abandoned one in the basement of an old dealership. We rebuilt it from the crank up (holy cats those cylinders are expensive) and it now runs and rides. My 16 year old rides it a little. This bike is the only one in over 20 bike rebuilds I've done where I found living organismims in the float bowl.

Anyway, I cannot find rear turn signals anywhere to buy and bolt on. I've looked on eBay and no dice.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to source?

Thanks to all.

Those things are, today, basically cheap trailer signal lights. Hurts my brain to pay $50 a side for OEM.

Yes. I've owned it for years and years. I think 6k miles and still on the original ring and piston. It has Turfrey pipes on it now and it RIPS.
