why are people so dumb?
Well since it's been so cold here in Illinois and I can't ride my new 600 i've been dumping money into mods like crazy. New mirrors, bar ends, levers, changing the backlighting on the dash, etc. In the process I noticed that i had a rear signal out and in my attempt to replace the bulb i discovered that for some reason the guy who owned it before me actually SOLDERED the bulbs into the socket. Apparently either they didn't consider having to change a bulb or they just didn't plan on keeping it long enough to have to change one. Needless to say I just ordered the clear alternatives integrated taillight. Sometimes you wonder.

yeah but this was another one in a long line of things rigged up on the bike and the frustration factor built up to the point of "i'll just replace all of it". And besides, I wanted the taillight anyway and this gave me a good excuse to get it (what the Mrs. don't know won't hurt her) hehe. Now if I can just convince her that the exhaust is shot and the only reasonable replacement would be a full titanium system.

some people just dont know how to fix/mod things.. and they dont understand the long-term effect.. the guy probbly had to think of a quick way to fix the blub, so he solder it.. (dont ask me why).. but that's what happens when you buy from private owners =/
good luck with fixing it man

WHAT THE F****?!?!... oh that's bullsh*t - they should've checked every part of that bike before they sell it.. dealers are so shady, cant stand them. But I would go to the dealership and ask for a new socket.. should have a warrenty on it.. (dont know what kind of warrenty you get) you probbly got the one where it's good for the fire.. (the campfire that is haha)
