Hey guys, just wondering how people mounted their LED indicators to the front of their bikes? Mine have just arrived in the post, but short of drilling a hole through the headlight clamp I can't see any way of mounting them.

Thinking about possibly drilling out the holes in the brackets for the stock front indicators, but I'd prefer a more straight forward alternative if possible.

What's wrong with the stock holes?

I've got a '99 M600, the stock holes (which support the brackets that the stock indicators connect to) are on the top triple (circled in red).

Why don't you mount the LEDs there?

Well usually there's holes in the headlight supports for the turn signals - which are missing based on your photo.  But that's how most folks do it.

They do make clamps that go around your forks for mounting lights.  One place to get them might be:

Grug just had to do what you don't want to and drilled new holes for my indicators.
It's not at all difficult and looks neat IMO.

Thanks Matty, I figured that'd probably have to be the case. Did you just remove the headlight, tie back the wiring and drill?
