Hammer LEDs

My first thought was "why haven't these been done before?"

Second thought was "They probably have, I'm just behind the curve"

Third thought was "Wouldn't they bend back and rub against the fairing at 180mph?"

They look like a very useful thing, at a very expensive price!

16 LEDs @ 10p each
4 plastic housings @ £2 each
4 springs @ £1 each
4 plastic tubes @ 50p each
4 plastic cable glands @ £1 each
5 metres of cable @ £1 per metre
VAT at 20%

and profit, lot of lovely profit!

I think you'll find...

TOUGH METAL CASING
Hard anodized 6-series aluminum, stainless steel

So nearer £3.

Just make them semi-circular, so they're visible from 180°? No need to make them bendy.

If the bike hits the ground hard enough to bend an ordinary indicator, replacing one of those would be the least of your costs.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if material costs were the only costs involved in running a business and we didn’t have things like employees, NI, insurances, premises, tax, marketing, infrastructure costs etc etc etc

I just looked at Fowlers parts webshite.

An indicator for a 700 Tenere is £35.48, so £141.92 for a full set.

If you do ride off road a lot then £177 for a full set of (almost) indestructible ones doesn't sound that bad.

Bike spares are a rip off. As is this.

Of course they are not the only costs, but take material and treble or quadruple it. Still lots of profit left.

Anyone remember Deely Boppers?

If you prefer, you can now get 'sequential' indicators from Oxford...

What I really want is a pair of pop-up wavy hands for my CB250RS...
