I think one of the mods is to flash flames from whichever exhaust can is required to indicate a turn!!!! 8O

Same price as i paid from a bike shop near me dont know what size mine are though compared to them.I could measure mine for you as you only have a small flat area on the rear light to mount to.

What makes you think you need to move your indicators with your new exhausts arriving? I had mine mounted like this before when my exhausts were cranked up like the sp1

:lol: :lol: :lol: oh just a little project i did for the last 18 months!!!!!

The swingarms off the vfr800 pre vtec not too difficult to fit,the main bits to consider is the rear cylinder pipe and header needs altering for the shock,as it drops through the swingarm more central rather than offset like stock.Drill a new hole for the newly postitioned shock top mount bracket.Fabricate some new linkage plates and spacers for the vtr tie rod to engine,use a vtr swingarm collar and a vfr swingarm collar to set the swingarm up to make it true for the wheels,fabricate a spacer for the front sprocket to line up with the rear to make chain run true,otherwise it runs off line plus a few other little touches to make it all work.

If your thinking of doing it pm me and i will go through in more detail and have dimensions for spacers,plates etc etc
