I have a 84 CB125s and I need to find new turn signals for the front and back. The current ones are aftermarket led and most of them are burnt out. Ive called several shops to see if they have something similar to the original, but nobody can seem to help me. It seems that the 84 and 85 Cb125s are hard to find any electrical parts because it is a 12v system. Any help would be appreciated on where to find a substitute online.

If you have a 24w 6v bulb, will draw 4A.
If you have a 24w 12v bulb, will draw 2A.
So, don't worry about the voltage rating; buy indies that fit and suit bike style; fit 12v bulbs; if indy is designed for 6v, wiring will be rated for twice the current 12v bulbs will draw.
As for suggestions?
Well start with one of these:-

£8, and chrystal timed, it will drive any mix of indies, whether LED or tungsten bulb, and irrespective of wattage, and give normal flash-rate.
Then? Whatever takes your fancy; but, if trying to keep it looking stock; then round chrome or square plastic; I'd be looking at other similar era small Honda's; CB125 Super-Dream, or CD125/200, CB Two-Fifty, CG125, etc etc etc... they liked using what they already had on the shelf; though they often had a lot on the shelf!
