Today I had the day off college for some reason unbeknown to me, but I was happy.

Didn't want to subject you guys to [img][/img] tags, because the pics are large, dimensionally, I tried resizing them, and photoshop attempted to anally rape me.

Did a few things to my little MZ 125.

First off, new indicators.

Check those beasts out, they're massive, and they point upwards.

Smaller, better looking IMO, and I think they add at least 5bhp.

Secondly, a very pointless tax disk holder, but it's my pride and joy, the bike deserves a little bit of carbon fibre somewhere.

I also spray painted the rack while it was off for the indicator fitting, which you can't really see, but it looks better than it did.

I will soon be changing the front indicators too, and getting the seat re-covered, my little bike's starting to look good.

Note the black downpipe, I sprayed that today aswell, with some VHT paint, also note the huge front indicators.

My other tinkering session of the day was dismantling my mum's divvy, flat battery, it's a pain how much you have to take off to get the battery out...

A fun day.

Wotcha.

All the better for those inattentive car drivers to see - especially now the Winter's coming along.
I went along the opposite route - removed the nice, shiny, but small indicators, and fitted something that give you a fighting chance of being seen.

There again, I'm an old git . . . . . . but how have I managed to become one ? Laughing

These little babies are of a higher wattage, therefore should be brighter even though they're smaller. Which should be good for the long cold, dark nights, which you always ride through with a bike being your only method of transport...

Big ones are more visible.
