Im sure someone on her has got a spare mate..ive just give 2 away !! Not sure if you can buy the lens seperate (I do know you can get aftermarket white ones), but the whole indicators quite cheap..

I think the early monster lens is the same too..

I think the full indicator is less than £10 new from a dealer.

If it's the same indicator used on the early monsters / SSie, they're less than £9 from a main dealer for the whole indicator unit

excellent news lads. Found 2 spares in the 'spare bits' but they are slightly different. Look a little better actually. Will have a look tomorrow when i get in the office.

Bradders, u2u will be written in next few mins (half time). :)

I think Hein Gericke still sell indicators complete for £5.99.
They are in the catalogue as a universal indicator.Gawd knows why folks are paying £20 or more for a pair on Fleabay.

i thought the Ducati ones were different at the mounts ? like squared off to fit ?

If not, then i have a set i can use downstairs. :)

I'm not sure what you mean by squared off Weeksy but the OEM ones are definitely flat at the surface that mounts against the airtubes. So I guess in effect are squared off? Is that what you mean?

Nope, i thought they are sort of Cube/Box shaped at the mount as opposed to my current ones in the spares which are like Toilet roll shape LOL...

descriptions are not the best but i hope it makes sense.

Definitely the same as early Monsters, my '95 916 and '98 M600 have the same kind of blinkers.

Hein Gericke sell a whole load of indicators and they used to do the exact same ones as Ducati oem. They even did the lens as a spares item for about 96p each! Have a search back through the board as I'm sure the part numbers were posted. Maybe Ian can let us know if he can get them?
