Need help.. I have been to all of the local bike shops (including AutoZone) looking for a replacement rear trunk turn signal bulb for my 1984 Goldwing Aspencade. I just bought the bike this spring, so I don't have a lot of history with it. The previous owner put a 12v 1.8w bulb on the right side. It's not bright enough, on the left side there is a 12v 6w bulb which is nice and bright. I assume the 12v 6w is the correct bulb. Does anyone out hear know where I can purchase the correct bulb? Thanks

I did find this post but does not lead me to where I can purchase just the bulb.

It sounds like you have an aftermarket turn signal trunk kit. Can you post a picture of the 6w bulb you have? Someone will be able to ID it for you easier from a picture.

Autoparts store, get a pair of bulbs (12V 23W) type 1073 or compatible sized bulbs in clear or amber. Should cost you about $3.00 or less for the pair. These are the bulbs that originally came in the bike.

As GasWing said, those are aftermarket bulbs so we have no reference numbers to help you with.
I think those kits are still sold through J.C. Whitney. Maybe they could tell you what bulbs the kit uses.
Good luck, and if you find a number, please come back here and post it. That way, maybe we can help the next guy who has this problem.
