    Hi TC, love the mods you did and I wonder if it will also work on the cruise control? Next question, where did you get the parts? Very good Idea. I have a 2020 model same color so I know it should work. Redlightron.

    My bike is currently in storage, so I can't look at turn signal button. Looks like it is held on by a set screw. Is this correct? I do have the replacement cube and paddle pads to install once the spyder is out of storage.

    Hi troop, As EdMat said it is a simple press on to install. Follow the instructions that came with your parts. Hope you get your Spyder out of storage soon!

    I didn't use any tools to remove the original from my Spyder. I just gripped it tightly, gave it a little tug and it pulled right off. It kind of surprised me that it didn't fight anymore than that.

    i ride an older 2011 RT and it's hard to see blinker in the display during the day. if i had this knob and a brighter blinker light in the display, life would be good.

    TCBoone put me in touch with the maker, who shipped me mine same day, arrived next day. Excellent service, easy install, and excellent fix! Used the new signal and shifter all weekend, with zero missed signal cancels. The shifter pad is optional in my opinion, as that wasn't difficult before (but it does make upshifting easier), but the new signal cap is a MUST. This might be my favorite mod, actually. Certainly it was the cheapest and most practical!

    Called about the shift and signal modifications on the 27th, I received the parts on the 29th. I have arthritis at the base of both thumbs, the comfort improvement in my left hand was very noticeable during my ride today.
    Thanks Dave and TCBoone.

    I just did a 93 mile ride with many lane changes, and for the first time in 20K miles I did not have one failed manual turn signal failure. Before the new knob, I would almost all the time have the signal flashing the other direction.

    I've had this mod for a while now and I can honestly tell you that it's a game changer for me. Nore more stretching for the shift paddle, and no more slippage on the blinker switch. Also no more accidental pressing of the horn switch. That happened more than I care to mention.

    I have used these safety mod pieces on both of my previous F3Ts (2016 & 2017).
    They make a huge difference in the operation of the left module.
    Keep up the good work...

    Installed both the shifter pad and turn signal switch - follow up; took a 3-hour ride and never once had to look down at either. It's just amazing that something so small could make such a major difference. THANKS AGAIN DAVE!
