[QUOTE="DesignFlaw06, post: 1332822, member: 18057"] "It's a liability thing" is usually a BS answer for a question. It basically means I don't know the answer but I still want to sound like I know what I'm talking about. I don't buy it. Honda still has self canceling turn signals on the Goldwing, but the people who are looking at Goldwings are looking for all the bells and whistles on a bike. I'm thinking Yamaha decided that nobody would choose their bike over their competitors because of self canceling turn signals. A simple cost cutting measure and there hasn't been enough demand for it to be put back in. Thanks for the write-up John. I look forward to installing mine at Tech Day. I originally was opposed to the idea of having to push the same direction again to cancel when I'm so used to pressing center to cancel. Then it dawned on me what the purpose of this product is and I shouldn't have to do that very often. Maybe I missed this, but if I have left on and I push right, does it switch to the right signal or do I have to first press left to cancel and then right? Just thinking about a passing instance where I may be past a car and getting back over before it has time to cancel. [/QUOTE]
