I had A Roadworthy done on the ZRX yesterday. I won't go into why, that's irrelevant. But as part of the RWC, I had him fit four new indicators. I had broken them months ago and never bothered to fix them. Anyway, the front left globe blew 1klm from the workshop........
quality mate that is.... quality!
The upshot is it is only a bulb, I just pulled the old one out.

Ha! I set fire to the Sprint today (by mistake); I would love to have new indicators. Incidentally, don't try to warm epoxy resin with a match. Just a heads up, dudes...

Nope - put it out nice and quickly
. Just attempting to refix a broken fairing tab; normally the plasti-weld works fine, but yesterday it just wouldn't set. Assume just too cold. I'll see if I can survive without a radiator shroud on that side until the weather warms up.

Stevos are 5 mins from my place. Just none of them are open Sundays or public holidays. I chucked a 12V4A in which works, but flashes fast due to resistance difference. But, it works so will be OK till I get some.
