One thing i have always disliked about small blinkers is the recess the old one's leave .Even with those plastic fill in things to me its looks its an
add-on and not really designed to fit the bike .I spotted these led's in supercheap today with the idea they (2) might complement my twin round
headlight set up .I filled in the recess with bog ,drilled and painted .Not a bad look so far ,certainly better than that recess showing .

Have you ordered one of the plug n play relays to adjust the resistance for LEDs ? Its a better way than useing the small in line ones. Like this one :
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LED-Flasher-Relay-Suzuki-GSXR-GSX-Bandit-600-1200-1250-Hayabusa-SV-650-750-1000-/390407160085?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5ae6148115

ps. If you want some in line resistors, I have 4 that I dont need and you can have for free.

When I was looking for LED imdicators for my 1200 I saw the ones at Super Cheap. They were $50 a set. Not cheap at all. I bought each pair for $29.95 from http://www.mcas.com.au/_product.php?section=1&prodid=12646 . I bought black backed ones.

Mine were $50 but i couldnt be bothered waiting 3 weeks to save $20 .I bought a led flasher relay but i just realised it probably wont fit .
Should have looked at the original relay first , never mind i havnt opened it .

Gus you shoudl have just gone and brought a set of these Rizoma Track 77's

Cheap LED indicators are exactly that... I've had the ones Ross is talkingabout and they are shit. You can't see them in the day and the LEDs vibrate out of the PCB.

I think mine are bright in day light. I have been checking them out in the refelction of the car in front and in shop windows. Seem good to me.

You can't see both ends at the same time anyway. A bit like Kim Kardashian. Very Happy

I got mine at scheap as the ones i got from ebay were not bright enough in the daylight. Broke one original in a slight lie down and went silly on the net buying fake carbon fibre styled crap.
still got the recess'ss in the fairing too lazy to worry me. These are third the size of originals but brighter.
cost was about 30 bucks pair.
