flexilbe / rubber indicator mounts

[SIM]

Hi All

Tried a search but cannot find any info....but sure it has been discussed before.

After riving the front indicator stalk of my bike over the weekend, off roading. has anyone fitted flexible indicators to there G.S.? if so what suggestions.
All the proper trail bikes i was out with have them, just wondered if any body had tried fitting say xr xt indicators.

Thanks in advance

There`s not much to discuss really.......buy the ones you like and fit `em.

Hein Gericke sell some neat ones if you don`t want to start ordering Jap ones but it must be said that a lot of the Grey Import Jap dirt bikes have some very sexy ones fitted.

Metal Mule do shortening kits for both front and rear on the 11xx (don't know about 1200) which keep the original lenses but they don't stick out as far.

I went down this route as I don't like micro teeny invisible indicators.

Not strictly speaking any more flexible, but much less likely to catch them on anything.

touratech do smaller LED ones that, though not flexible, don't 'stick-out as far, so are less lightly to get bashed.

I've fitted these to the rear of mine, but didn't bother with the front and left the original since I thought (possibly wrongly) that much more would be smashed at the front before I had to worry about the indicators.
