Pointy rear lights with built in indicators
I have seen quite a few of these on ebay. They look like they might look quite cool.
Firstly, is it legal?.. And secondly, do any o you guys have these or have used one in the past? I am very tempted!! Cheers |

Re: Pointy rear lights with built in indicators
The do not meet the required legislation as the indicators are too close together, and incorporated with the brake lights.

Apparently the light dispersion on them is terrible too. Check out a company called "hot bodies" ( or something like that) they do an awesome undertray with flush mount indi's. A bit pricey, but comes with all lights and a tail tidy too ( I think)

I know. It looks great right. Really tidies the back up. Not too pricey when you factor in £60 for tail tidy + £30 for decent indi's. Plus...um... Ok, it's pricey

I got some smaller ones too and went ahead and cut the grey connectors off the bike.
BUT. I found some leads in a store the other day which has bullet connectors at one end and the grey Suzuki one at the other - so no cutting. Search eBay for "Suzuki indicator lead" |
