  10. Might give you MOT blues.

    As I've said before indicators need to be a fixed distance apart and these do not meet the criteria. Similar to the more conventional aftermarket integrated tail & turn light that's been on the market for yonks.

    Although the distance of the indicator spacing is not part of the MOT, merely the fact they work and flash at the correct rate is the criteria I believe................................we all know what some testers are like.

    Personally I'm not that keen anyway.
     
  11. I quite like them but only as brake & light. They look similar to the panigale's. Built in indicators look naf but there's a built in switch to turn them on & off.

  12. Mate of mine was stopped for the flashing stop light, I find it highly distracting and there is no proof it helps people see if your stopping, drives me crazy when I follow people with them, also MOT says emits a steady light. Personally who ever came up with the strobing stop light needs a kick in the balls.

  13. I agree. But as a normal light and fixed light for braking.
     
  14. BMW Dynamic Brake Light on my F30, so don't think illegal!!

  16. Agree...ish... haha

    That's the problem with European law, it does not directly fall into line with UK law, the MOT directive clearly states "emits a steady light" where Europe I think it can flash for a given time at 4Hz, bikes the same "emits a steady light" or a traffic officer who may know his bikes could argue not standard equipment? Or at least that's how it was last time I looked..not that it would stop me fitting one :) Fitted a few to my customers bikes, one a crosstourer with a beeper too :O they have never been stopped and all work in London etc


    Did you order one lol No flys on you...lol
