Muchos grassyarse GDUK, (and the guy who made it!); It looks mint, (though mine wont be getting fitted til next week after the BMF Show this weekend)!

I also got my Prila rucksack, (waaay cool!), and my sooper-doop new linkages which went straight on the bike!
I expect snow shortly seeing as how its Chrimbo again...

Oh I am a happy bunny!

I hope you're all using security bolts to fit em.

They don't fit properly. I think. Why else nobody has posted pics of Falco with them put on?

Falcoholic · #35 Post by **Falcoholic** » Thu May 17, 2007 8:36 am

I think mine might be here but I won't get them until Saturday morning cos the postie took em back to the Post Office cos he couldn't get them through the letter box.

However I am waitin on a load of stuff for the CBR so it could be some of that stuff.

Oh yeah baby.

Got mine this morning but I canna get the LED's to work. I got a direct replacement for the standard 21w/5w tail and brake lights but they dinna work.

Any ideas why?

Can't see any reason for this. Not like with indicator relays. Have you tried the orig. bulbs again? Perhaps you shorted/blew a fuse when changing them?

Yea, also check to make sure the two lumps of solder on the bulb make contact with the bit they plug into. With the leds being slightly heaver than standard bulbs they sometimes can tilt down on their own and disconnect themselves.
