Easy Drifter, I looked at Partzilla and saw Kawasaki OEM part # 23037-1401 ( rear turn signal assemblies for $77.35 each ). OEM part #'s 23037-1426 and 23037-1427 ( front turn signal assemblies for $76.43 each ). These prices total out at $307.56. Around $350.00 when you add in sales tax. Thanks for responding to my post.

Greetings all, My 2006 Drifter is approaching 20 years old and is showing her age. She has been garage kept under a cover but time has taken its toll. The rubber portion of her turn signal assemblies has started to crumble  and fall apart. I have come to learn that this is a fairly common problem with Kawasaki's Vulcan series motorcycles. Rubber portion of the assembly is not available separately for sale. Cost of 4 new assemblies is around $350, Ouch!. Does anyone know of an alternative fix? I was hoping maybe someone has created a 3D printer replacement for the rubber pieces. I'm open to suggestions. I will say that I am not into cheap Chinese replacements.

Thanks and happy drifting, CDD

Where did you get quoted $350??  I just went on Partzilla, all four would be $252 plus tax, shipping free.

I agree with what mittico68 wrote. I recently purchased some aftermarket aluminum turn signals and am very pleased with the result.
In total, I spent about €80 ($94 at today's exchange rate), including adapters and stainless steel washers to attach the rear turn signals to the stock rubber mounts.

I faced that problem some years ago, as ma-deuce is a 1999er.
So, I went for the "cheap chinese replacements", because I couldn't actually spend that huge amount of money.
I hope that your pocket is bigger...
