Hi

Can anyone link some decent small indicators that will work on an xj600 1997 without flashing wildly and needing a new relay?

The current stalks are OP to fuck

Is that photoshop pic or has someone 'improved' them
for a fairing/luggage maybe?

Assuming its real is shortening the stalks an option?
There are shits load of flashers on Ebay etc
If you have a bog standard relay you'll need ones with bulbs
as they're load dependant and go mad on leds.

If you go led, you'll need a better relay
Don't go the led and load resistor option, that 's a horrible bodge
and a waste of money too when decent relays are so easy to get
( or make, mine run anything, leds blubs or a mix no probs)

I put these on my CB500

Nothing amazing, I'd be tempted to put some better screws in them as the stock ones were made from cheese but they worked well enough, no flashers needed, normal bulbs in them.

I got rid of the big similar looking indicators from my bike and replaced with generic "Bike-It" bulb ones from halfords, £15 a pair I think..

Tidy it all up without looking chav tastic.
