Default Wanted: Rear turn signal recommendations

I got a fix-it ticket for one of my turn signals being broken off, so now I need to buy some new ones. I don't want an integrated taillight/turn signals kit because they're too hard to see, and I don't want cheap crap, either. What would you guys recommend?

The mudflap part of the fender has been cut off and aftermarket turn signals are/were mounted in the stock location. I plan on making my own undertail and it will have mounts for signals.

Yeah, I've thought about getting a Clear Alternatives light. My problem with it is that even if people can see the signal flashing, it's so close to the center line of the bike that it's kinda hard to tell which side it's flashing on.

If thats the case ide suggest doing to a clear alternative and then do the led pass peg turn signal mod... then ude be set... because even if they overlook ur alternative (highly unlikely) there is no way they can miss ur pegs...

even with ur devil shot gun they will be able to see the pegs from almost every angle..

I don't see anything really to illegal with the turn signals. I had same setup on my old bike and never got pulled over. Nice touch with two exhaust mufflers. Honestly never seen that before
