Turn signals are not required on any motorcycle manufactured before 1974. Turn signals on mototcycles are not controlled by the U.S. Department of Transportation. Each State in the U.S. has legal control over that type of equipment. Most of the U.S. States did not require turn signals until 1974 and only a few of the States required them earlier. So, you are not required to put them on your older motorcycle, there is no retroactive requirement in any of the U.S. States.

If you have to take the riders test to get an MC endorsement on your license, just practice your hand signals so you can demonstrate your knowledge.

Paved roads, just more needless government spending...
