I'm looking for some flush mount indicators to replace the distress beacons on the sides of my bike, I found these on US/UK websites available quite cheaply but once you add in the postage....
Does anyone know where you can get these or similar in NZ?

Do they REALLY show up well? In bright daylight?
Reason I'm asking is that I thought about a set of those nice sleek 'cators for my Harley - but after seeing how hard they are to notice and reading about the poor clod making a right-turn who was punted up the rear and killed I am having second thoughts....anything to help the idiots realise you're on the road IMHO.
Just my 2-cents - and I MAY yet get some of those nifty 'cators.

I have almost the exact thing in my garage (mine are slightly smaller tho I think ) that I forgot to give the guy who purchased my bike...I was going to put them on my ZX7R. They are micro indicators, white lens with yellow led.
Paid $29.95 USD shipped for them, they have been opened and placed next to the fairing and then put away again. Happy to sell them to you for what I paid (don't know current exchange rate), otherwise I'll keep them for my next bike incase it needs flush indicators.
Let me know.

Not too sure, but they look quite similar to the ones I had on my gsxr250 which were fine. Certainly a consideration though!

Thanks for the offer, quite keen for the amber lens ones though as I'm not intending on replacing the rear ones and I want them to match

What an appalling site!
Not only was it slow, hard to view, but the pix were so small and fuzzy I couldn't see what half the things were.

Damn, I just checked the angle of the fairing where the indicators are mounted, I don't think it's on a steep enough angle to make them visible from the front with your ones - I need something that protrudes a bit more. Thanks heaps for the offer though!

Why not just get some small mini indicators for it.........you can get some real nice ones these days.........nicer than my ones but will give you an idea of size................

Hey bert have a look at www.sportsbikesnz.co.nz click on accessories and they have these for $35 they seem to have a clear lens but as for a warrant the indicator must be amber/orange or whatever then they must have a coloured bulb i guess.

Thanks! I'm certainly very happy with her :love:
It's settled then - 3 votes for the new indicators, none against.
