Nicely done lttlcheeze, looks like you put a good bit of time and effort in.

I was gonna put the dampers on it by saying i dont think having the indicators and brakelights behind the same lens is legal over here but :

1) someone on here has already done it so it must pass its yearly MOT

2) I'm sure new cars have them all integrated so vw bmw etc all cant be wrong :smt002

I still dont need any as i dont have a rear lens, but good luck anyway. GregD's still paying the mafia back for the loan he took to cover his loss's on the ones he did :smt003

On a bike for it to pass it's MoT you must have the indicators either side of the rear light, so the Falco shouldn't pass over here with the indicators inside the lenses like the ones I made for people. You may be ok if they are clearly to the sides of the red lights, like the lights Aladin recently made.

Cars will pass that have indicators in with the rear lights as it's obvious which indicator is flashing as they are so far apart. Personally I wouldn't put a bike through with this set up and expect it to pass unless you had a very accomodating examiner.

I have an understanding brother in l... MOT inspector


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...
