OEM turn signal bulbs but amber

I can't seem to find OEM same-sized turn signal bulbs in amber (yellow). There are some shorty ones that are the traditional aftermarket ones but they're not very bright and the bulb is really small.

I figure if I can find the AutoZone equivalent it'd help. I know it's like 32 candle watts but I need a direct number like 1157 or something. I tried getting some generic ones but they won't turn in the socket. ;(

First place I looked. Manual doesn't state replacement bulb number. Their books don't have bikes listed. Computer LCD screen thing (lookup yourself) doesn't offer motorcycles as an option.

The bulb in my old stock blinkers says 1073. Looks like an 1157 only the 2 nipples are the same height from the bottom instead of staggered.

ahaahaha He said nipple.

Re: OEM turn signal bulbs but amber

Front blinkers use a dual filament bulb, u need 1157NA
Rears have a single filament, I believe those are 1156NA (letters at end designate colored glass)

You could also go with 2057 or 2357 on the front, these are the same socket but with different light output levels. I have no idea which one is the brightest, just make sure to get a matching set.
