Fancy indy for a curvy
Stupid problem, my front indy's are in the way of my camera while mounted on the crash bung ( i know more it )
but it got me thinking about flush mounted indy's http://www.watsendesign.com/Suzuki_P...V_Products.htm Those nice folks make some cute indy's for the K3+ 650 and thousands but it seems they dont make them for curvey's Any decent alternates people would recommend |

Re: Fancy indy for a curvy
They actually look pretty neat and noticeable. I just bought some mirror ones though and at £40 a pair work out about £60 cheaper*!
*im crap at exchange rates

Re: Fancy indy for a curvy
They look really neat but £80 is quite steep...

Re: Fancy indy for a curvy
Do you have any mods to your fairing or is it standard?

Re: Fancy indy for a curvy
Here's what my SV used to have as front indy set up
LHS indy on  view from RHS with indy off  What I had was cat eye indies where the standard indies were and had some flexi LED strips in the holes on the front of the fairing as the side ones weren't too visible from the front. You could easily do something similar, use small indies on the side that sit flush and maybe some flexi indies at the front somewhere. I think Rictus had a similar sort of set up a log while ago but he drilled and mounted half a dozen LEDs on the top fairing near the mirror mounts IIRC

 I've got indicator blanks which are identical to those indicator blocks. I could just drill some holes and put LED's in. Is there a similar thing for the curvy that you could use? |

That's what I found as well hence having the extra LEDs at the front
