If you find a place that makes custom exhausts for cars, that has an extruder machine and a mandrel bender, you could get any link pipe you like made up.

I went to see these guys in Northampton about a link pipe for my XT600 http://www.longlife.co.uk/ they couldn't help me because my XT exhaust was only 1 3/4" pipe, and they didn't have tooling that small for their pipe extruder, but for an SV pipe it would have been no problem.

Thanks ralph thats definatly something to look into! I have just had a look at the bike and reckon i have move it slightly manually but will have to try when the tail tidy comes!

It best be here soon im excited haha.

I have the same problom. Indy sits on top of can. I'm goin to make a tail tidy bracket that lifts the indicators up away from the can

May just try that, looks good. Easier for idiots in cars to see as well.

Most of them are not very bright and the colouration in certain light conditions can make the brake light and indicator look very similar.

From the VOSA pdf

Front indicator
Amber
2 max
Min height 350mm
Max height 1200mm
Min distance apart 240mm

Rear indicator
Amber
2 or 4 max
Height as front
Min distance apart 180mm
Max 300mm from rear

Cheerz for the reply. The GSXR i just bought has built in indis, didnt even think as to the legality as they were so widely avaliable but did doubt its effectiveness in comparison to seperate blinkers. Will have to get some fitted pronto! Thanks once again.

if you do it properly you can have a very high level can, the original tail end, without the snow plough and a set of standard indicators that fit properly(for a curvy at least) A LA

yes its in my for sale thread, but it illustrates it can be done well, without anything being illegal
