Front indicators removal, how?

[(RIP) Yosi]

Any suggestions how to remove the front indicators?

Have a a set of mini's to be installed in my eleven hundred...

Cheers...

Get yourself a cup of coffee and then sit by the front of the bike looking for all the screws and catches that might be hidden there somewhere.

It's a real bu**er as you need to dismantle nearly all of the front end plastic bits

Just work away at removing things and eventually you can get to the indicator stalks and the locking nuts on the back of them.

Thanks Ian: What I notice by removing, as you said, bits and pieces, is that they seem to be bolted facing down. In other words, the stalk or the stalk mount sort of bend 90 degrees down somewhere under the beack?

I'll give it a try again while waiting for the faulty clutch friction plate supplied by Motobins to arrive . ..

I understand the quickest way is to throw it down the road, Yosi. Reamber to remove the crashbars first...

Mike, removing the crashbars isnt necessary. I have removed one (or both) on several occassions with the crash bars still in place.

For the record, I have found that lobbing the whole thing upside down in thick wet mud to be the best means of removal.
