I'm in the process of changing my handlebars over to Renthals, but would like to retain the standard bar ends. Could someone let me know the tap size I will need to fit them please?

all the crap that sits on top of the engine?

First thing would be to remove the AIS system if you haven't already done so, then you'll be able to see and access a lot more of the top of the engine. There are loads of posts on here about AIS removal and Pats motorcycle page provides step by step instructions on how to do it. I'm not 100% sure where the water drains out of though.

This is the link to the ones I bought, but there is a drop down for the other colours if you want to go the whole hog, I only did the green indicators.

Well I thought I would jump on the band wagon but went the whole hog and fitted blue LED's for the back lighting, Total cost was under £7 and only took 45 min

Looking good  :thumbup

To be honest, it was only the indicators that I found hardest to see in the daylight, all the others seem fine. If you do change them all it would be best to get the Led's colour matched for each lens. Good luck, any problems just post on here or PM me.
The direct link for the Led's if the above doesn't work is

Hi, I asked for the clear LEDs originally and Crazy as well as a couple of other companies advised green would be the best choice, so I just followed their advice and I'm glad I did as the results are well worth it. Some LED's give out a wider span of light but I opted for the 'straight ahead' beam to direct it straight to the green lens. For what it cost and the little time it took to fit them, it's a mod worth doing if you find that the original bulbs are not as easy to see especially in bright sunlight.

Well people, after much searching and trying various bulbs & Led's, I have managed to source some 'plug & play led's totalling the grand sum of £2.31 delivered. The company to get the correct LED's from are called Crazy Leds http://www.crazyleds.co.uk/ and the part number for them is T5/286 2XPLCC-21 and specify you need green. They take paypal so its easy and mine were delivered next day.
The job is very straight forward and takes around 20-30 mins and I have attached some pics below.
1 remove left and right hand infill panels and then the screen.
2 with ignition off, unplug the multiplug from the back of the clocks (push the tab down and pull)
3 undo 3 x 10mm nuts securing the clocks to the frame, one at the top and one either side.
4 remove the complete clock assemby from the rubber mounts
5 remove the rubber strips (if you have them) and the 7 x phillips screws from the back of the clocks
6 twist anticlockwise the 2 outer bulb holders below the green indicator glass.
7 pull the bulbs from the holders and insert the LED's in their place
8 put the bulb holders back in and twist clockwise to lock
NOTE LED's will only work one way round so before you put the back of the clocks back on, plug it in and try the indicators. If the green lights dont work, turn the LED'S round and try again.
9 Once they both work, turn off ignition unplug and replace the back of the clocks.
10 put clocks back into rubber mounts, fit 3 x 10mm nuts & washers
11 replace screen & infil panels, Job done!!
