Indicator resistors or new flasher.
Now, I've replaced the indicators on my other SV with LED's and as you can imagine the flash rate is a touch high.
I was looking at putting in the resistors, which I will need one for each led, or does anyone know of a flasher I could use to replace the original with. So save a lot of hot resistors being wired into the bike. |

Re: Indicator resistors or new flasher.
I believe Motrax / GB Moto do flasher relays from Halfords and other outlets. They should be plug & play and I imagine replace the charge / discharge cycle which involves the resistance of the bulbs for timing with an internal timing circuit. Easy, but much dearer than a couple of extra resistors.

Re: Indicator resistors or new flasher.
Dan
I had resistors on my SV1000 for 4 years with no problem - IIRC they were 10w 10ohm from Maplins, about 40p each, one for each indicator - might evan have a couple of spares at home still if you need them. Matt

Re: Indicator resistors or new flasher.
I'll be poping down to Maplins later, but thanks for the offer.

Re: Indicator resistors or new flasher.
I'd go for the flasher rather than the resistors any time, I dont like the idea of hot pieces of metal buried away in the plastics/underseat of the bike.
