just found these indys on:

it's a clear LED unit where the brakelights funcion as normal but also act as indicators - would they be legal? The product description says they're e-marked but I'm not convinced... still I like em 55 quid

I was told they are illegal.

Shame as i quite fancied it on the R6

Only illegal if you wire up the indicators. Leave just the tail and brake lights and they conform to C+U regs and are MOTable, as long as they are E marked.

illegal as the indecaters are too close together......

[The Laughing Assassin]

But would they be legal in ADDITION to the standard inicators? i have also seen these and thought they were most excellent......

[ASM-Forever]

My understanding is as Lozzo suggested....

If the indicators are wired/operational then they're not allowed.

I've got these wired up with original indicators. Spoken to a few policemen since having them on and they've only ever said they would be illegal if i didnt have my original indicators too. I've never had any trouble and i've had them for well over a year and covered a few thousand miles. Even the midlands police said the same as the ones down south.

It's your bike get some if your like them, if you get pulled just unplug the integrated indi's simple, same goes for mot.

i have these fitted on my k3
never had a problem with the plod and has always passed the mot...so i can only speak from my experience with them.

ps...forgot to mention my indicators are removed also.

seems to be the same old story, depends where you live to how plod / vosa react :smt017

top stuff, I'd happily leave my standard indies on - just better not stray into south yorkshire - the filth down there are WELL KEEN...

hmm understand what your saying about the legal implications but imo leaving the standard indies on somehow takes away the effect.
