    Hello people

    I am considering buying Triumph Led indicators for my 2011 speed triple. Is it worth 140 pounds (front n rear)!!!. It's a lot of money for the indicators :-(


    Also I read from 2011 onwards you don't need to flap about removing tank etc to fix the indicators. The connectors sits behind the radiator side cowl. Or am I talking crap :-(

    Thank you all.

    I'm already pissed off with my rear wheel 46mm socket I bought. It's a bloody 3/4 n my torque wrench is 1/2 drive. I will call a few car parts shop to see if I can grab an adapter.

    I was thinking about the indicators because I am going to remove the rad side cowls to replace them. So if the connectors are behind there then it would be straight forward otherwise I don't know. ...

    God forbid you have to take the key out of the ignition to fill the bike up with fuel when you're having fun :p you know its got to have the indicators as you can't go on riding around with those belisha beacons you have :D

    I was contemplating between the indicators or carbon headlight bowl :)

    I've just this minute ordered a 46mm socket for mine, almost got the 3/4 by mistake, think you can get an adaptor but probably cost as much as the socket lol

    I got the 3 pistons. But I couldn't remove the adapter inside the bar. Previous owner glued it in. I had to get different length bolts. It's all good now :)

    Thanks Dozers n Darkman :)

    I came home all excited. Took the Abba stand, all the tools, all the carbon bits I bought, got the bike ready to take the loose wheels to the shop tomorrow to fit my new M7RR. I pick up the breaker bar all big smiles n grab the socket. ....I was kicking n screaming :-(

    Friday is the only day I get to ride. I know I can ride as it is.....still you know what it's like.

    I'm going to call the triumph dealer in Hemel Hempstead to see if they have the indicators in stock for me to pick them up. Or just get carbon headlight bowl n ride around with the belisha beacons; -)

    I have taken off the side fairings n the connectors are there :). Should be straight forward to fit the triumph ones. Let's hope they have it on the shelves

    I ordered led indicators for both front and rear + relay. But I'm reading a lot and it says that it is only for the front. Has anyone got this installed front and rear and is it all running without any issues. If there are issues I will need to call triumph on Monday n cancel the order.

    Thank you all :)

    That's the one I ordered through triumph :)

    I need to figure out the relay swap. I found the instructions for it. Time to hit the manual to find the indicator relay ;-)
