|

just fitted a set of led rear lights with built in indicators as recomended by Johan aka Bimota carbon .
They do tidy the rear end up but im afraid they look a bit "Kev" you know a vauxhall Chavalier with lexus rear lights what do you think _________________ so many toys so little time |

Got the exact same light on the back of mine. Getting quite common, even on Bimota's |

They only look odd on a vauxhall because the rest of the car is so boring... not true for the bim. Looks great. _________________ Pomps

i think i also like them very much (especially on a sb8r special because they match perfect with the carbon-fibre and will look very classy.
I will wait a few days and then place an order (i need on for my self too so it is no big deal to order a few more).
if you wan't one let me know, from now om i'll wait 7 days and then i will order them.
they are cheap as you can see and don't think the shipping costs are that high.
Oily i can put you on the list??

Hi Johan, How much do you think shipping will cost?
Payment is alway's a pain in the arse for me unless you accept paypal |

ok...i understand and i agry....but when this part is made of real carbon i don't think you'll see any kind of light when they are made of real carbon
i accept pay pall and shipping costs will be about 10 pounds i think.

I know johan you are right but its but two words i hate in the biking world are "Carbon Look " it is so Naff, normaly seen on small scooters and suzuki bandits
words i do love are Carbon fibre , alloy, kevlar , unobtainium, busty, and ice cold beer _________________ so many toys so little time |

I have to agree. I bought some carbon look original fitment mirrors for the SB8 and they were not to my taste. The weave wasn't the same so they're going back on Fleabay _________________ Seven |

On my Ducati i just fitted LED bulbs under the original lense. Looks standard until you switch lights on/brake. Also solved the blown bulb due to vibration syndrome. May try the same on the V-Due |
