I was told I dont need a number plate light but i'll double check before I go for an MOT

Theres no LED bolts on there , just normal ones man

Reflectors on my original plate which im re-fitting for the MOT ;)

Suppose ...

The rear light shining down does the trick ?
Looks well ...

The old units which used to light up the number plate, had a clear section in em, to shine white light down ..

If mot geezer is being arsey about it, he Could fail you for been red ... or is it white below ??

Of the 20% failure rate on bike MOT tests, over half are for defective lights. Quite amazing since these are amongst the simplest items to check yourself before going to the test.

The requirements are simple, and quite straightforward to replace or adjust, without the need of a mechanic.

HEADLIGHTS & TAIL LIGHTS must be free of chips or cracks; the headlight must also work on main and dip beam, the main beam must shine directly ahead and the dip slightly lower and to the left.

INDICATOR LIGHTS must all flash at a steady rate and the warning lights function properly.

If a HAZARD WARNING SYSTEM is fitted, all 4 indicators must flash at a steady uniform rate.

Bikes must have a red REFLECTOR on the rear of the machine, either bolted on separately or as part of the tail light lens.

Moog,

Sounds really well m8 ...

Gonna have to ditch my gutted yammy xpanny & standard tail pipe ...

& fit me 2nd hand DEP system ...

Mine sounds meek as F@ck compared

It only really sounds anything but mouse quiet
over 8K & 60 mph

[But whilst it fooks off right off the top of the mph scale towards 90mph, im loath to change the pipe !]

If you've already put the led relay in then take the bulb out from under the dash that lights up when you indicate and they should flash. According to what has been said in another thread this can be replaced with an led.

Don't know if you know this seiki but a blade fuse fits nicely into the blue coloured wire connectors so cut the wire and crimp 2 on and hey presto a fuse holder ;)
