Little problem with indicators and tail tidy
Permalink  
 


If you haven`t got the 2nd part of the frame connected to bike you wont have the mounts will know if you have if you have the grab rail on the end

Look by Part 20 thats one of the mounts there a bracket fits to that mount aswell

Got some new mini indicators today , fronts fit fine but rear don't fit under rear mudguard? When fitted into holes on tail tidy they are all twisted due to tail tidy possibly under a bit far. Need some ideas in order to get them fitted? Was thinking if cutting slight part of fender to accommodate. Or some sort of extension to allow to be I stalled further out. Should have fitted indicators to tail tidy first before fixing to fender!!! Live and learn I suppose!!  Any thoughts please?

Not that I've noticed? Will take further look in morning. Could always drill hole into rear fender on each side and do that? Want it looking tidy though? Ummmm stuck

It's not too bad for you lot, but with the stock placement i went through so many indicators, the back pressure off a single 4 is stupid..!

Yeah no grab rail on this baby. Is it worth purchasing one then? Or should I drill holes in fender? Really don't want to ruin new fender!

looks ok m8 but without the strength of the handle speed humps etc are a nightmare the tail tidy comes loose plates fall off etc etc best go for strength

Don't think this will be going lose anytime soon mate. Nylon nuts underneath always good.

yeah looks ok ..

but +1 to the grab rail for picking uo the back end and turning the bike on the spot ect .

not keen on those indicators always tend to snap off with the slightist catch against shed door frame .. nothing realy beats the big bulky old originals can lean bake against a wall and they take the weight even after a small fall they bend back in to place .

 +1 on this if you just want style then its your call but honesty it tends not to be orth it if you have to go looking for your plate after a long ride
