The Diode Mod is Dead ..... Long Live the Diode Mod.

I've been wanting to try out an idea of mine for a while now .... just been a case of gathering all the bits together and finding the time ..... but it's done and it works.

It's basically an improved (IMHO) version of the diode mod that is needed when fitting LED indicators. This version does not require any modification of the wiring harness (though there is still modification required that is no less of a pain)

It does however give an additional benefit that is equally useful whether you have LED indicators fitted or "traditional" incandescent bulbs.

While I get on with another useful mod I've been thinking about, I suppose I'd better let you start guessing what the mysterious "additional benefit" of this "new diode mod" might be ......

You may have some time to guess as it'll probably take a while to perfect the other mod

Have you mounted an led tv at each indicator point, meaning more power is needed (hence no diode mod).

Added benefit being people can't complain they don't know which way you are going?

Perfection time being mounting them in a way so the bike can actually lean and go round corners?

Good try Dale ... but it is much more simple than that .... and I've not been anywhere near that imaginative !

Will the additional benefit be that it will make me irrestistable to both Emma Watson and Shakira ?
