• Is the Koso GW-01 street legal in Europe?

  Yes, the GW-01 is fully E-mark certified, ensuring compliance with European road regulations and making it street legal for use on public roads.

• What does sequential mean for a turn signal?

  Sequential means the LEDs light up in a flowing, progressive pattern rather than all at once. This creates a smooth, eye-catching effect that improves visibility and adds a modern custom aesthetic to your motorcycle.

• What is the M8 x 1.25 x 20mm thread and how does it fit?

  This is the mounting thread specification. M8 refers to an 8mm diameter bolt thread, 1.25 is the pitch (distance between threads), and 20mm is the bolt length. This universal thread size fits most motorcycle frame and fairing brackets designed for standard turn signals.

• Can I install the GW-01 on any motorcycle?

  The GW-01 has universal fitment, meaning it can be adapted to most motorcycles including cafe racers, classic bikes, and modern custom builds. However, you should verify that your motorcycle's mounting points are compatible with the M8 x 1.25 thread specification before purchasing.

• Is professional installation required?

  The GW-01 comes with a complete wiring harness, making installation relatively straightforward for those with basic motorcycle electrical knowledge. However, if you're unfamiliar with motorcycle wiring or your bike's electrical system, we recommend consulting a professional mechanic to ensure proper installation and functionality.

• What is the power consumption, and will it drain my battery?

  The GW-01 consumes only 5W at 12V, which is extremely efficient. This minimal power draw is unlikely to drain your motorcycle battery, especially if your bike is regularly ridden. LED technology inherently uses far less power than traditional halogen turn signals.

• Why choose a smoked lens?

  A smoked lens offers a sleek, modern aesthetic that complements custom and cafe racer builds while still providing excellent visibility. The tinted lens reduces glare and adds a sophisticated look without compromising safety—the E-approval ensures it meets visibility standards.

• Can I use the GW-01 for both front and rear applications?

  Yes, the GW-01 is sold individually and can be used for front or rear turn signals. Many builders purchase multiple units to outfit their entire bike. Ensure that your motorcycle's electrical system supports multiple turn signal units if you plan to install more than one.
