Title: Gen1 indicators
Post by: SkidT on 18 May 2020, 01:56:56 pm

Greetings all,
Are the Gen1 indicators really different from each other??? Fowlers list a different part number for each indicator unit.
Haven’t got the bike in the garage at the moment so can’t go and compare each of them.
I’m after a new front right indicator, part number

The base section is the same both sides, only difference is the lens and the live wire colour. If you reverse the lenses the writing will be upside down.
Be aware that the US indicators are bigger than EU ones

Thanks for the response unfazed. So, can I check that i've grasped this properly???
Can buy the main body of ANY of the indicators, but will have to buy the correct lens in order to make the lettering the right way up AND make sure that I reverse the live wire (if its not a front right or rear left)?

Left wires are Black and Brown and right wires are Black and Green. Connectors are the same, but wires on the rear are longer than the front yes all bodies all bodies are the same.
I have used fronts on the rear and just swapped out the inner of the broken one with the replacement.
