Cheap Indicator Modification

[madness]

For all those running standard Suzuki indicators, here is a cheap but effective mod.

Get 4 mince pies and eat them, saving the foil trays.
Wash the trays, cut the rim off of them and make a 'X' shaped cut in the centre of their bases.

Remove your indicator lenses and bulbs, push your new 'reflector' over the bulbholder and then put everything back together.

Hey presto, brighter indicators.

who ate all the pies, who ate all the pies.......

good tip though.

We used to do this years ago to old bikes whose rear light reflectors had become corroded, crinkly foil works well too.

does it have to be mince pies or can i eat cherry bakewells? ;)

[toxic]

will ready meal trays work?

or can I just use silver foil duct tape?

Use any material that is more reflective than black plastic, which is just about everything!

Knowledge is never wasted, leave it a few years and it'll come around again.....;)
