Vehicle Wiring Products do a kit but I haven't used one myself. In general, their products are good quality. They also do all the components.

Hi Dennis,
As Ian has said, Vehicle Wiring Products do the Indictor kits. I fitted one to my bike and was very satisfied with it. They also send a catalogue of their products which has lots of goodies in it. I have a copy of a wiring diagram should you need it.

Hi Dennis,
I found it quite straight forward. And I’m the kind of person that if there’s a hole, I will fall into it.
I fitted the little flasher unit inside of the head light shell, on an existing clip and I was able to replace the existing bolts that held the head light in place, with the new flasher light. They replaced the existing bolts just right.
I like you never felt safe using hand signals when driving. I don’t think young drivers have any idea what I was trying to do. And modern traffic is traveling so much faster than my old bike.

All good advice apart from keeping well to the left, now RoSpa and IAM advice is to keep to the center of your lane.
