Hi all, just found this forum, bought some led sequential indicators at the bike show last weekend to fit to my 2013 1000rr to replace the original rear indicators.Has anyone got any advice on how to fit? I have fitted the right connections but obviously they won't work in sequence as the flasher relay makes them blink. I think I need to locate the flasher unit and somehow bypass? So the live wire works of the switch? Not sure though, any advice would be really appreciated. Cheers
Can't help as yet but I bought the same ones for front and rear on mine. Not opened yet so not even had a chace to RTFM.
My Oxford leds came with resistor's but I still put the flasher relay in instead..I understand it's better! Haven't a clue about electronics but will my resistors be ok for these in the thread?!? If they are you can have them
It should be just a standard resistor to suit all LED's, yours should work Lozzy. https://www.rg-racing.com/browsebike/Honda/CBR1000RR_Fireblade/2013/RGR0002/ Failing that, the link above is for the LED's from R&G, £2.74 for the pair (Total is £7.99 with P&P!!!)
If you are ok fitting resistors thats ok but if you also want front leds in the future a flasher unit is the way to go, But if you are like me you can just fit resistors I paid about 80p each or you can put them onto the earth and just use one
I also think a relay change is better. There is not enough current draw with led winkers so the relay toggles too quickly What the resistor does is to increase the current draw and normally has heat sink coz it heats up. So you don’t reduce the overall power consumption. I would expect the led electronic takes car of sequential operation all you need is to give it 12v
Fitted the r&g resistors, got to add they seem a quality product, had to change the connections on the resistors but all works fine. Thanks for all the advice.
