Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
The hex screws came with the package was very flimsy, it broke while fixing so I had some screws from KTM which was used in the bottom part. All four screw position was not alligned, so one is missing in the top part. But it's still very strong with three screws.Originally posted by Sarvajit View PostCould you please post some pics?

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Thank you very much! I was confused thinking the U clamp goes at the bottom. Now clear! [emoji106]
I have gone for blue ones but they don't match with the bike's color. Since it's anodized aluminium, need to see how to get it repainted. If epoxy primer doesn't hold, then will have to get a powder base coat then spray paint.
BTW, I noticed you've swapped out the blinkers too. Looks like LEDs. A pic would be nice!
I'm using my 2nd set of LED blinkers too with an aftermarket flasher relay to control the blinking rate.Quench my thirst with gasoline!

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
I am using Bajaj/KTM Led which comes with their RC, Dukes and even RS200. They are of good quality. I used some cheap led but it was very bad. I'm not using any relay. It seems to blink correctly. Using this for a long time now.Originally posted by Sarvajit View PostThank you very much! I was confused thinking the U clamp goes at the bottom. Now clear! [emoji106]

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Cool! What did you do for the mounting points? Any adapter or spacers used?
I went with Yamaha stock mounting type 1st time and they were double the size of original. Used to be crazy bright but later on they sagged and almost fell off.
I've gone for KTM like design blinkers (also used on R1) in Yamaha mount style now. Not too bright but does the job.
Front I have flush mounts from eBay India on both my bikes.Quench my thirst with gasoline!

I used some big washers to cover up the space. I'll try to take pics later.Originally posted by Sarvajit View PostCool! What did you do for the mounting points? Any adapter or spacers used?

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
i find the led'sOriginally posted by leech View PostIs there any cons to the stock indicators that you guys have chosen to replace them?
'crisp' (in flashing.. you know like a 0 and 1) and bright. the ktm/bajaj ones are very good quality & expensive too at around Rs.550 a piece iirc. i hook up my bungee cords to the indicator stems on my d200(when tying down a tail bag) and they have held up well. they don't sag like some of the ones you see on hero bikes (new karizma was notrious for this) or even the r15 v2 on which i've seen the rear indicators droop spoiling the look.
