Shorty Indicators

[gas boy]

I'm fitting some alloy panniers to my 1150 ADV but the rear indicators are in the way - can I buy or shorten the original ones

yep, metal mule if you want to do it the proper way, or just cut them down. There are posts somewhere on here about how to do it.

edit... this from civils site... http://www.cajasahel.com/faqs.html

I used touratech brackets to move them back and outwards, then Metal mule short stems, without the TT brackets they cannot be seen from the sides.

This is what you need...

Available from Metal Mule, delivered very quickly (I found out I needed them after cutting/ruining my originals, they shipped me these double-quick and all was well again ).

Keep the Visability

The Importance of Visability can not be underestimated on
a motorcycle ,Its all you have sometimes.

For the 1150 nyou need the one on the Left.
This takes the indicator out past the Pannier , and actually enhances other road users view of you

you can get them uncoatyed if you want. You will have to re-wire as well

I fitted a pair of standard Triumph indicators to the original holes.Shorter,work OK and can fit the TT panniers.

i fitted some lovely oxford led ones to solve the indicator problem. They're rubber mounted so can take the odd knock without any issues and they save a bit of weight. Look trick n all

Civils brackets look just like the ones I used, If you dont use something like that then certainly on my 1100 the indicators are completely invisible from the sides.
