Angel eyes might look alright, I was under the impression flush indicators were illegal tho. Anyhoo after having a performance with my own led indicators those one's advertised seem to be controlling the flashing with lots of resistance, as YC learned me this'll draw power from the battery in the form of heat so you're best using a decent set of indicators and a flasher unit. A user on here (think it's screech) has a flasher unit for sale. If I was you I'd buy the indicators from a shop not ebay then you have the option to take them back. I got four led indis from me local shop for £30 t'other day.

I opted for little arrow shaped led ones (over my crap aftermarket standard carbon affect ones already fitted as I drove behind my bike and they weren't noticeable) the arrow ones are tidy and a bit brighter.

disclaimer: apologies if I got the resistor thing wrong!
