I might... I'll check in the morning. There's a good chance that somewhere down in the dark corners of my workshop there's a set of four orange lenses from a Vaq, plus another set of four of the larger sized but similarly designed orange Voyager lenses.

Installing clear lenses on a Voyager wasn't an easy process. It involved a donor set of complete housings (they came with lenses) from a Vaq being required, because that was the only size that clear lenses are manufactured for. (Shout out to jestephens for the donor parts).

I'll get back to you when I find them, and like jestephens did with me, I'll pay it forward... Yours for the cost of shipping alone if they're any use to you. You might like to check which is the right fit. I think the Voyager is the only one with larger turn signals - all the other 1700's will have a different part number.

If you want the larger Voyager ones, they can come with the chrome housings as well... If I can find them.

Wher did you buy clear Vaquero Lenses ?

Lights4all is a German company makes clear or smoked lenses for the Vaq. They sell them through their website, and used to sell them on their Ebay store (which doesn't seem to have much to offer at the moment).

Here's a link to their website. There's a disclaimer that they don't fit the US Vaquero, but I fitted US Vaq turn signals to my bike, and the clear lenses fit fine. The European Vaq is called a "Voyager Custom".
