DRZ400 Turn indicators

[Revnelli]

Greetings wonderful people,

My DRZ came with the OEM front turn indicators replaced with LED units which fitted on the front headlight assembly. Looks neat, but they're not so effective in full sunlight - and I get a fast blink rate. I also suspect they lower the light output from the rear turn indicators as they don't have time to get to full brightness.

Anyone got
1) any OEM turn indicators (inc brackets) they'd sell
or
2) suggestions for a universal unit which would fix it.

Get OEM brackets for the DRZ..they're cheap..I think they're around 8 bucks each.I like the new KTM signal lights on the 690 R..they are 25 each.That's what I did on my bike.:hb:

FWIW the answer to this was a pair of cheap indicators from Gnarly parts (WPS oval rear , even tho its for the front) - $20 the pair, work great and look great. They mounted into the original brackets by using a 4 'fender washers' from Lordco and a some sprung/split washers in the middle. Plus a bit of filing.
The bulb on these is the same wattage as stock
