Those look pretty sharp, PeaSoup. The flashers looktiny though. Can you see them all that well?

I've got theseZeta handguards and they also comewith flashers in them. They look better than the Acerbis you're talking about. I saw the Acerbis ones on an XR650R, the flashers are rectangle and stick out too much. The guys I got my wheels from have them. Vancouver Supermoto

From the looks of this pic, I would say they are LED. No details on whether they come with a load resistor to slow down the flash rate though. I think I would just go with a solid state flasher though.

Answering my own question.... After studying the picture again, they would have to be LED's since there appears to be eight individual lights. So, the question remains, does the Zeta system have any delays of rapid cycling of the turn signals? If so, does the manufacturer have a solution for the rapid cycling, or do we have to seek the solution from another supplier?

PeaSoup [sm=mail.gif]has the answer, since he appears to have the actual items in his posession. They look cool enough for me but I will need a bit more 'info' before I spring for the expense. Come to think of it, since Acerbis is no longer making theirs, guess this Zeta product is the "only game in town".

We are all on the edge of our seats for Peasoup's road test. I don't think I would count on those tiny things to be my primary turn signals, but I wouldn't mind running them in tandem with the stockers. In fact, if you were to hook them in parallel, I doubt they wouldchange the resistance enough to change the flash rate.

Yup I'd get those over the Acerbis ones. The acers have a very bleak light, and the aluminum bar those other ones have will come in handy for a good spill.

When my acerbis' break (and they will), I'll be getting those.

Peasoup,

Can you give us an impression ofhow bright those flashers are? I already have a pair of the black XC protectors withflashersand armor hand guards on order, but it would still be cool have your review in the mix.
