you were lucky there malc

the resistors you need one for each indicator

& if they still flash too fast you need bigger resistors

and they do get hot

look below at the picture

think i have a couple spare somewhere

if you need them

Before you start messing around with resistors, are you sure you have the correct bulbs?
I had this problem on my RF900, turns out the bulbs were the wrong wattage.

Don't be too hard on yourself Malc - I manage to skin my knuckles whenever I go near spanners or ratchets. Most recently, when adjutsing the tensioners for the chain. Hmmm, little tight this one, I'll just apply a bit more pressure, a bit more, little bit more, <nut loosens, hand hits rear sprocket, cue a bout of swearing>
