I don't know about making your indicators work, but seeing as this is in the FAQ section I thought i'd make it relevant. The best NSR indicators are from the place listed below, both myself and trueblue have them and never had any problems.

Well I got the Flexi-stem indicators from https://www.vehicle-wiring-products.co.uk/VWPweb2000/mcycle-1/mcycle-1.html . They're only ten quid a pair and they use the same 10W bulb as the original ones so are just as bright.

They do front and back and are quite a bit smaller that the wings I had before. (most of this text was copied from a post of trueblue)

Open up the indicators and look at the markings on the bulbs. They look like numbers and letters. Razz They're usually either 10w, 21w or 23w. Standard bulbs are only about 4w I think.

TGE125NSR, read the NSR125 FAQ!!!!! thats what it is there for Very Happy , and if you also read [this] thread i started, it covers almost everything about indicators on NSR's, and if you look at the pic I posted at the bottom, those indicators you have are the exact same ones I have on my nsr Smile

By the way, the bulbs in those indicators are 23w, and they use an orange bulb-which you cannot get in 10w (10w is the NSR standard). So get down to your nearest motorcycle shop (hein gericke or M&P etc) and pick up a 23-25w relay.

Go to halford, buy a new relay for whatever wattage bulbs you have got.

It will cost you about £2 if that.

you just do not need a new relay.

just make sure the total waatage on each side does not exceed 33.

mini's usually have 21w . got but 2 10w from halfords for £4ish and replace them

all will work fine then

That's one way to do it, but a reason why the wattage is especially high on mini indicators is that they can be hard to see, especially clear/iridium ones.
