Article [11] ST1100 - LED front indicator upgrade

Re: LED front indicator upgrade.

Many thanks 4walls, I did all blinkers and taillights (flashing) and I'm as happy as a pig in mud. Used all the ingredients that you mentioned (all took about 10 days to Australia) and had a great time doing it (yes, I need to get a life). I hope that the flashing taillights minimises any idiot/s running into the back of me. Thanks again to all involved. Cheers from Oz.

Good to see that you were able to complete this modification. As it turns out, I ended up with one of these http://wingstuff.com/pgroup_detail/...1905_Clear_Lens_3rd_Brake_Light_w_Run_Option/ and then sold the 1100 to buy an ST1300. So now I am revisiting the LED upgrade option again.

what is a "suitable diode?"

I can't see the pictures or know for sure how this is being wired.. but from what I can deduce he really means a suitable resistor. As in a resistor of proper value to limit the current from blowing out the LED's.
