NC35 front indicators

Post by tom wood » Mon Oct 27, 2008 5:44 pm

Anyone got any ides what indicators fit or can be fitted with some work to the standard positions on an NC35. Don't want to put the big standard ones on. I don't want to be drilling extra holes in a mint nose cone either.

I've had to replace my standard items with aftermarket jobbies, due to clearence issues on my new exhaust.

Pretty much any will fit, but I needed some blanking plates made up to cover the mounting holes on the standard fitment (most aftermarket items only require one mounting hole, not the 3 on RVFs and NC30s).

did you make them up from plastic or some thin stainless steel or something?

Dad made some from aluminium, about 3mm thick, then sprayed to match the fairings. I couldn't get them accurate enough with plastic, plus wasn't sure whether the paint would key nicely to the surface.

they look really neat, i will have to make a template then do a program to cut some on the 2 axis laser at work. they will be thin stainless steel though, bloody machine wont cut aluminium. it would be tied up all the time doing little jobs like this!!! thanks for the pic!!!
