I wonder what percentage of uk firestorm owners are actually members of this forum

....i mean, most households have computers,....when you buy a bike the first thing you do is Google it

(or you Google it before you buy the bike,to find out the pros and cons )

You''d think someone lookin at the "was it you" section, and seeing their bike being spotted would deff register to reply,but maybe thats not allways the case

But back to the light.....
I fitted one about a year ago, with the indicators in. Wires are crap, as has already been said.
But they take such little current they don't need to be thick.

SO, just a tip- before you fit it, make a note of where the wires go in and are soldered to the board. When they come off it's lots easier to re-solder them.....

And regarding how bright the indicators are- I've also fitted mini indicators as well, so easier to see. (Same on the front, side repeaters and mini's).

And they'll STILL say they could'nt see me.....
