Couple of questions.
Right, firstly I bought this bike as it is now. I decided that I wanted standard indicators with clear lenses, so bought a new evotech tail tidy, and the oval hole for the indicator isn't big enough to fit the standard indicator bracket and rubber. Am I doing something wrong or is the hole too small? Rubbers dont fit in hole, and the plastic bracket shows how little room there is. ![]() ![]() Now I think the mini's have grown on me, so I'm thinking about getting some to match for the front. Can I get brackets that allow me to fit mini indicators in the standard front recesses? My indicators are in the headlight at the moment and I dont think they are visible enough. Is it the mini LED indicators that make them flash fast? How do you solve that? Can anyone identify these mini indicators? Cheers! ![]() |

Evotech do 2 versions...one for standard indicators and one for mini's.
It looks to me like the one for standard but not sure. You'll need to make up a spacer for that plastic bracket to allow the indicators to fit tightly...I made one out of 5mm(or so) perspex-a drill,a file and voila. Im not sure why your rubbers arent fitting properly...mine went straight in. I would suggest asking for a replacement tail tidy-it might just be a manufacturing mistake. |

I emailed Evotech, and apparently in 2005 the indicators got bigger, so as my bike is a late 2004 I've obviously got the late indicators. I need to get back to them, but I'm sure they will swap it.
But I'm not sure if I want to keep the one on my bike at the moment, any thoughts on my mini vs standard indicators debate? Or know where I can get matching mini's? |

i had the fast flashing halogen indys and in the end opted for the OE ones back on the bike, i cant see nothing wrong with OE ones personally.
