    Evening all!

    I've got standard indicators on my Daytona and just look so bulky. Ideally I'd get the genuine triumph LED ones but can't justify spending £200 on them when my current ones work perfectly fine, my question is are there any aftermarket LED ones you'd recommend that are worth swapping too?

    Cheers,

    Dan

    Watsen indicators for the front, no longer made but someone may have them.
    Are you ok with wiring, if so I could recommend rears too by motodynamics.

    what's wiring? :lol: I could get my mate to give me hand but ideally something fairly straight forward.

    Yep that's me. I paid £35 a pair which is a hell of a lot cheaper than genuinentriumph ones but it does come with some complications, particularly on the 2013 bikes.

    I had to cut the wiring about to put new mini bullet connectors on the bike to take the indicators. For some bizarre reason, if I fitted the resistors that come with them front and back the front ones didn't work, took the front resistors off and work fine.

    Secondly, as the wire runs through the centre of the bolt and you just have the 1 bolt I had to make up some aluminium blanking plates to cover the fixing hole of the original indicator. This came with the added consequence of the original indicator also forming the mount for the reg/rec in the left hand fairing. So had to make a plate up for this as well that I fixed to the reh/rec and it extended far enough to pick up the bolt on the rear of the new indicator.

    All in all, worth it in my opinion. Nice slim profile, black so blends in with my bike and I like the dynamic scroll as they indicate too. IMG_20200529_130443.jpeg

    Just my thoughts but the Watson's on the front and triumph genuine LEDs on the back would be a good set up. If you put a wanted advert up I'd be hopeful of sorting those second hand for a significant amount less than brand new. And they're quality items in my experience. Worth an ask?
