LH Switch gear.
 
as some may know I've found it mildly annoying not having a push to cancel indicator switch on the 404, so have been pondering adapting something....

well I set myself the task today.

one SV LH switchgear, one Triumph kill switch, heat shrink, soldering iron and some insulting tape.

retaining the original plug ( why do they use round pins when everyone else uses flat ? ) I mocked up what I wanted and went to test it on the bike.

I then cut off the choke housing from the side of the switchgear ( not needed and it makes the unit slimmer).

After confirming it worked as expected, I sleeved the wires and soldered & heat shrinked all the joints.

sealed the loom and plug.

Then fitted it to the bike.

the additional switch will allow me to have the projector lights ( went I get round to it) run with main beam or off, so a little future proofing there.

Cost well a bit of solder/heatshrink and time is all, the switch was in the shed, the other donated by
Sarj, so basically free, the right price I think you'll agree.... ;D

Cheers Mark.

Cool, so what you had to pushing the indicator back into the middle w/out pushing it to the other side? :???: yup sounds a pain.
So you do have a kill switch on the right? this is just a spares accessory switch?

Yep, RH switchgear was untouched, so still has start button and kill switch.

currently the extra switch is just wired in, but I plan to add aux lighting and it will switch them on with High beam.

Cheers Mark.
