2012 Te 250 - Tail Light No Longer Available

I have a 2012 TE 250 and 2013 TE 310. Flipped 310 on hill climb and busted a few things. Discovered you can no longer buy a replacement tail light (part 85384). #26 on USA Main Wiring Harness, Electrical Parts. Same part for 250 & 310. Lot's of places show they have them, like Bike Bandit, until you try to check out. I'm sure I'm not the first to discover this, searched threads. What have others done for after market alternatives on tail light. I'm considering Acerbis Universal. Getting a little scared about owning these reds with future of unsupported parts.

This is the same tail light that was included with the power up kit. Stock one was too big and prone to breaking. It’s fine for street use, but not off-road.

Thank you!!

Suggestion on turn signals?

When I plugged in my 2012 TE 250 or 2013 TE 310 it said it would not fit. Ordered anyway because I'm desperate for solution. If no fit I'll install the Acerbis I guess.

I ditched the stock ones years ago and went with sicass racing’s flush mounts. You have to replace the flasher with an led one so they work properly.

Hey 268fords, thank you so much for this help. Love the fender and those rear flush mount turn signals, so happy you shared this info. Now realize I will need LED for front turn signals. Do you recall what you changed to?

Did it fit?

It fits! I have a 2013 te 310 and 2012 te 250. Got one for each but had to use different sources - last one at each. Also got the low profile turn signals and new flasher for led turn signals. Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to this question. I'm so happy for this info and these products!

Question on the fender. Is the taillight choice simply always on or always off except when braking? I was hoping always on plus brighter for brake to be more street legal. Not sure if I just wired wrong or not. Also, for anyone considering buying, no light for license plate so probably not fully legal. Also, available again at Dennis Kirk as of 9/9/2019

Good to know if this will work. I am not running signals or a plate light on my TE so interrested on what you find.

Great, I figured it out, brake light works. If anyone is ordering this get those low profile turn signal lights at the same time and get that LED flasher. Swap out the front turn signals with small LED (required due to new flasher). All this was easy for a non-mechanic. As far as wiring, clip out old harness and study to install new wires. My only regret, I didn't do this long ago. Thanks to all for advice on this.

Thanks for the help on this. Finally posted pics. What a huge difference, I replaced those brake and tail lights and lost license multiple times. Hopefully this will cut down on that.

Do you want to sell the stock tail light?

Have a stock tail light assembly if needed. Let me know

I think I have two stock tail lights, one with the entire rear tail light subframe/license plate mount/rear signals.

It’s off an 09

You can buy them from an SWM dealer. Same part number as the husky (SWM bought the old Italian husky factory and redhead bikes).
