WTF over!

Decided to fix the indicators today and what a debacle that turned into. I'm running led indicators and knowing you can't use the normal flasher I went off and bought a LED specific bike one.....and it didn't work. In looking at that the rear brake light was also no longer working???? Checked the light itself and it was fine, the brake pressure switch was playing up. Maybe I don't have enough pressure in the line?....Why is there brake fluid on the rear sets? FAAAARKKKKKK!!!!! Long story short, the brake switch is cactus - need a new one. The master cylinder has been leaking brake fluid past the reservoir attachment seal - need to replace the seal or replace the whole master cylinder. My uber sexy HRC race reservoirs are still sweating brake fluid plus the lines have clouded - have to consult with the seers at RGV250.co.uk for some advice on this one.

Went back to the original indicator flasher and decided to load up the indicators with after market resistors so it will flash - need to buy them.

One step forward and about 6 backwards....I hate having to revisit parts I've already "fixed" ;-)

New indicators

I've ordered in a set of LED indicators so will have to wait for them to arrive from the factory of the world - China. No word on the shift connector will chase Deet at RGVSpares again. I'm stuck on how to route the remote reservoir for the shock. The line just doesn't lend itself to anything that looks good.
