Have you already got hold of a second mirror? In Europe you will need it ...TC said:Early morning run to Akuna Bay,

Hey TC, everyone is correct - that is a great looking 3C, great looking bike.

Very nice! What I would call proper.
Is that rear swingarm from a Kawasaki?

I put a modern signal flasher relay in my 3C today. Turns out the old Lucas one really was in full failure mode! It is an electronic version meaning it isn't the old fashioned simple bimetallic on/off relay but it seems to work just fine. Hooked up some LED signals (with resistors) and they work just fine as well.
Now I just have to get that mess of wires back in the headlight shell.

Jim, with an electronic relay you don't need to install resistors in parallel with your indicators. It'll work OK with them, but they're just drawing power for no useful purpose.
The LEDs need series resistors but I assume they're built into the indicator assemblies if they're rated for 12V.

Unless there is something bogus about this flasher it doesn't work without the resistors. I have a three pin relay that I know works without resistors but no luck with this one.

Electronic flasher relays are not usually load sensitive. Are you sure it's not a thermal type?

Re shockers. Yes it is the same one. When he changed the springs, he recharged the shocks, and said, bring them back and I?ll service them for free. Almost like he new something was suss.

I normally use a single mirror, it works as a good indicator for me as when I ride in Europe (on the wrong side of the road) I always swap the single mirror over to the opposite side. Very important on ze aoutobahn! I do the swap in the sunshine on the Dutch dockside in Ijmunden, wondering if I'm sober yet from the Ferry! :-[

Two mirrors saves a lot of head swivelling if you ride in traffic a lot. Personal choice.
