This bike continues to confound me. Riding to work earlier this week I noticed that the blink rate on the turn signals had accelerated, like a bulb was out. Upon arrival I looked carefully through the clear lenses and saw that all the bulbs had filaments that were in tact.
Later that day I moved bulbs around and found that one of them was indeed bad, even though it was not burned out. Decided to go to the parts store to find a replacement. And then went to another. And then another. And then another. None had anything in stock nor could they cross-reference the bulb number, GE 2641A. I looked through the manual, and it simply lists an EBR part number for the bulb, which coincidentally doesn't exist on the LAP replacement part spreadsheet.
After looking online, cross-referencing with Philips, etc. it seems EBR managed to source a bulb that doesn't exist in the aftermarket. I gave up and ordered some replacement LED signals.
Just a warning to you guys out there, but maybe someone has had some better luck finding a replacement.
