Motrax LED Alleycators

[redcalibra]

Anybody fitted these ,if so do they flash correctly or is a resistor or some other device necessary, motrax charge £20.00 for their own " Fix" any experiences .
Cheers Steve.

DO NOT BUY THESE unless you want a fcuk about factor of 10.

They flash INcorrectly... (too fast i think, had a voddie since )

Mate had them fittd to his Gixer thou and spent more time trying to sort them than riding it.

did slave wire them onto my and it was the same.

If you're keeping your standard bulbs in the front indicators you'll need to draw at least 1A through the rear indicator to make the flasher unit flash correctly. I dont know the spec on the Allycators but if they're LED based units then they may well draw very little current compared with a standard incandescent bulb.

To get round this problem you can try fitting 1 or two 15 ohm 17 watt resistors in parallel with each of the rear Allycators to increase the load on the flasher unit. You might get away with one resistor but it will depend on how much load the Allycators actually take.

If you do give this solution a go don't forget that the resistors will get warm after a while so leave a little airspace around them.

5 off resistors from RS Components is £2.60 + Vat

Stock No. 206-1647

Hope this helps but if you want any more info just ask.

Thanks trident I think I will give them a wide berth mate, all the same,thanks for your great advice.

I fitted small indicators to my old blade and it was just a case of wiring some resistors in parallel with them, very easy to do, mind you, I'm an electronic engineer

I'm thinking of modifying the indicators on the as I have to switch them over to the rack when I fit the lugage and it's a PITA.
