Frosties......I got a Bandit, can you pm me with the ins and outs of how and where you fitted them......my pooter doesn't open some of the links ppl post on here...especially picscheers
Guys,I didn't find any infos about the waterproofing of both options of lamps. Did anyone had problems?
Looking at the pictures I'm thinking do they make seeing the indicators difficult for drivers especially in daylight. I see some cars with DRL that turn off the side that is indicating so there must be an issue.If its seeing better in the dark that is needed if you only ride in the city then there is no need, so maybe and on off switch that is connected to the high beam switch ? And I suppose that you will need to disconnect them for the MOT too.If it is for beeing better seen by others then what about a couple mounted in that little gap under the MK fairing - seems made for it, not sure on the MK 2 but either way better under the fairing than next to the indicators.What about in an insurance claim the driver says he did not see your indicators because of the spots next to them.Discuss
Looking good fella . You reckon people see you more now?

You reckon people see you more now?Too bloody right unless they are in a BMW, Audi or a new styled Land Rover because they just don't FOCCING look people are really shocked at how bright they are when I tell them that they are only 10watt. The only problem I have with them is I'm still trying to work out how how to wire them into the ignition switch, I know it's probably easy but it takes a few attempts to just wire up a plug socket

He probably classes me as a nuisance, but we can't all be perfect.

I have a spade type push on connector on mine under the right hand side fairing infill panelthat I unplugged for my mot last week. 1 minute job to re-plug after mot done. My spots are wired through the side light circuit on my foxeye. So lights off all off, ignition off all off.
Hiya fella, I've bought and fitted these to my boxeye and they make a hell of a diffence. Will get a pic up asap. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2X-10W-Cree-LED-Work-Light-Spot-Lamp-Driving-Fog-ATV-Motorcycle-4WD-Boat-UK-SHIP-/331903321625?hash=item4d46fac619:g:BMsAAOSwbYZXf0sFUsed a fuse tap to link into a switched circuit on the bike http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2pc-Add-A-Circuit-Mini-Blade-Fuse-Splice-Holder-ATM-APM-Piggy-Back-Fuses-Tap-12V-/151973106702?hash=item23624d940e:g:3HQAAOSw3ydV5lbw I've bolted them straight to the top bolt of the radiator side plate. I know what you're thinking but a damaged rad is the least of my worries if the bike goes down hard.Thank you very much... I'll get them

The ones I bought were a fixed bulb, not replaceable without soldering capabilities.
