Illuminating Stuff

Been bringing my Buell up to date – brought forward by it rolling off the stand and breaking one of the original indicators – and have always wanted to go LED all round.

These are incredibly cheap indicators which have gone further than I was expecting – the side and taillights are optional but as they’re there, and as they are so damn bright, I’ve connected them up – and the only downside seems to be that it’s not a stop/tail light, but that’s okay. I’m nervous of losing the impact of indicating or braking when the indicator function knocks out the taillight, so I’m running a brighter central stop light that will take any ambiguity away.

The other downside is that they were very cheap and you’ve got to wonder whether they’ll last – we’re not talking Kellermann quality here – but time will tell.

Headlamp’s next.
