Short stalk turn signals.

I think I’ve got them on mine. I’m pretty sure the PO got them from Mikes. I’m sure it the same product. No issues for me.

I think most XV750's and 1100's, both in production for quite a few years
Yeah a quick Part(not available)Zilla search, looks like most of the VX's used that lens/bezel combo :thumbsup:. Now to find someplace that sells new replacement bezels.
 
If you have trouble finding a source for new bezels, check eBay for oem Yamaha Virago turn signals, making sure to include "oem" in the search
 
While you're at it consider running lights in the front signals? Never did understand why some bikes have running lights in the turn signals and some just do not.
For depth perception and visibility that is one safety feature I really like.
Besides just looking great

Good suggestion! I converted my front signals to twin filament sockets to enable front running lights by salvaging them out of Virago rear signals that I had bought for their bezels and using them to replace the OEM single filament front sockets. The ID of the hollow threaded rods that secure the front turn signals to the headlight bucket only allows for one wire, so I drilled them out a bit to allow for two. Since the pic in #4 above was taken some years back, I relocated my front signals off the headlight bucket, using lamp nipples to allow enough ID for a ground wire in addition to power for the turn signals and for the running lights. I had two "mule ear" brackets fabbed that bolt to the lower clamps and allow for "sleeve and grommet" attachment of the turn signal housings to the brackets, a necessity to minimize vibration damage to the bulbs. For red lenses for rear signals/running lights, check www.customdynamics.com for metric replacement lenses that fit with Virago bezels - they are listed for Vstar and some other recent Yamaha models but directly replace the amber OEM lenses on Virago turn signals. I think it's a bit cleaner "look" than the original locations beside the headlight, but that's just me.
