Ive seen a fair few bikes with them on, i think the prob is the indicators arent the required distance apart. im not sure how strictly it is enforced, like number plates etc.

does yours have led bulbs then, and did it need a relay thingy to slow the blinks down?

I went to fit the indicators in myself using bulbs, but thought id check it out with the MOT and they said it wouldnt pass as the light from the indicators will mix with the brake light, so they have to be seperated into thier own compartments. Mine has two LED clusters for the brake lights. No idea about if you need another relay or not, i know theres bits you can buy to help with that from halfords.
