I have some plain looking flush mount indicators on the front of the Bandit, they fit in well with the bike, but I can't keep em stuck on!
Next step is stickoflex me thinks! ? [:0]
Me thinks the problem starts coz the holes in the fairing are quite big....Not alot of surface area for the blinkers to stick too...

I put flush mounts on my RF. I have a large aluminium stepped washed to fill the hole left by the standard indicator stalk.

sorry to butt in gents but ive just put led indicators on the triumph and i cant get them to flash right
the usual variable flasher unit just glows and the stock one flashes like fuk

It's all to do with the load Jim. I'm shit with electrics, that's what I found when I did mine. Resistors on the hyper flashing unit is the future. Try these:

Some of the smarter, electrical geezers will have the answer mate.

i had the same problem with my blade sticking them on, i used blue rtv silicone and silconed a long bolt onto the back of the flushmounts (very generous with silicone) and then used the stock holes in the fairings and threw a nut with a split washer on the inside
