Looks like the whole front fairings on SV650S have to come off to change a turn signal...

Hey Pug,

I'm not real familiar with the 650s, but the Gixxers have removable panels on the underside of the Cowl allowing access. Held on by a couple phillips screws and a press pin. You might look there first.

Thanks...I'll look there first

Still waiting on my repair manual from repairmanual.com in the mail...

Also I mean replacing the entire thing..Not just the bulb

Take a look at this. It may help. Removing the lower portion I think (bad habit of mine), should give you access to the back of the turn signal stalk.

Was easy...All I had to do was find the right socket to fit the nut that holds on the turn signal and take it out.

But the shift level they ordered me was the wrong one..Grrrr
