Integrated tail light on Pointy?

my advice for what it's worth is.. don't as i'm sure it's an MOT fail.

First of all, there is only 1 "R" in Integrated :)

Secondly, as well as an MOT Fail, its illegal, and could get you pulled for it - Indicators must be 120mm apart.

Thirdly, some of them can be quite hard to see.

So basically, dont.

R&G make neat tail tidies.

I've got Oxford Nano LED indicators, small, bright & well made, and resistors are included

I was looking at buying that for mine but being curious I did ask a couple mot stations and they said it would fail an mot. That was my decision made

My friend has similar on his R6 and i'd imagine to most cagers they're invisible. Took me a while of following him wondering where the indicators were before i noticed. Mot fail, yes, unless you know somebody ;) He's not been pulled over in over a year, but then he's a fair weather who barely uses it.

I was thinking maybe this

With these

They look okay? Plus where would i get resistors for these?
