Regards Stu !!!

steff750:
the short answer is yes :-\ but when they are on the bike they are out of site,and i assume they are still working so why would you want to change them? they look better than some of the ones i got ,i will swap you for mine if you like  ;) and my parts are over forty years old and look a lot worse than them "if it aint broke dont try and fix it"  they are the rectifier regulator and indicator flasher relay ,and they will probably be very expensive to replace , so save your money for when they do fail  :) BTW they dont breakdown very often so be very patient you could be in for a long wait

Spitfire:
I just cleaned mine up, repainted them using Humbrol enamel model paint and put them back on, they still work and are reliable.

The flasher relay is easily replaced for 99p for an electronic one which doesn't depend on bulb wattage to work. I had to buy one recently as I couldn't find the correct wattage bulbs for my winkys.

  ::) well i did'nt know that.
my indicators stayed on with me on my irish honda cb750 last week and made a buzzing noise from the flasher unit i was gonna change it but all the spares i could find are two prong and not three .so i thought its nackered may aswell have a look inside ,so opened it up and cleaned the contacts and away she went like it was brand new ;) you can also open the regulator and clean or adjust contacts in there aswell,dont you just lurv moving parts  8)
