Self Cancelling turn signals
I'm interested in how many of you let the self cancelling turn signal shut off the turn signal on it's own or manually do it by pushing the signal button?

I turn them off after fueling from the left side. I make sure I note this with a pen.

The answer to your question is 972 of us let them shut off by themselves. I am not one of them.

My habit off turning off the turn signals after every turn is so ingrained having self canceling ones are a wasted on me. I have 3 bikes and two do not have the self canceling ones so better not to get in the new habit of letting the bike do it.

My shadow had manual signals and I cant tell you how much ribbing I took after riding several miles with them on. Getting the Nomad I no longer have to worry about it.
