Signal buzzer orientation
« on: June 08, 2014, 11:45:50 AM »
I'm trying to do an original restoration on my '74 CB550 as close to factory trim as I can, so getting the details right is the name of the game. One item I cannot find anywhere is how the turn signal buzzer (located on the left headlight mount) was oriented; facing rearward, down, to the front or whatever. If you have one of these things on your bike and believe it to be original, could you please tell me just how the damned thing is pointed? Not a life or death situation, I know, but I would appreciate the info!  ::)  ;D

Thanks!
