XBR front indicators
« on: July 03, 2009, 01:38:16 PM »
On a 1985 XBR how should the front indicators be mounted?
I've seen some XBR's with them mounted of the headlight brackets and some with them mounted just above the lower yoke.
Mine are bodged onto an extra set of headlight brackets ,  so I need to know which parts I should be looking for!

The early XBR's (SF) had the indicators mounted above the lower yoke. Later models ( from SG I think) were mounted on the headlight brackets (and they are SO annoying as they wobble when you ride along - I've changed mine to mini indicators).

Have you got a copy of the workshop manual/Parts manual?  If not PM me your address and I'll send you a copy on CD.

Mines an 85, the indicators weren't mounted to the headlamp brackets but on seperate bracketry. I might still have them although I don't recall seeing them lately. The bike was stripped for racing back in 86.
