Hi good job, I checked out loads of lights and that was the only lamp I could find that worked on the rear as well. Nice to see you did not hack the wiring up. The only issue you may want to check is the rear indicators may not far enough apart. There is a legal minimum width separation requirement in UK . Not sure what yours are but worth checking before you get a pull over from the boys in blue.

TEC Bike Parts Hi, thanks for the heads up. I ended up changing them almost immediately but mainly because I wasn’t happy with the look. I did wonder if they were a bit close to the centre line though but didn’t know there was a legal limit. I’ve got another vid about to upload but thought that one had useful info for folks. PS I’ll be ordering some of your headlight brackets soon! Contemplating the risers too!

If anyone is interested in black handlebars for the interceptor, Hitchcocks motorcycles in the UK have a matte black set of bars that are the same dimensions as the originals but they are made in England and they don't have the brace.

Love the mods and your expertise with the rewiring. Very professional. However, I do have one question. Being as the new LED Tail Light is shallower that the original Tail Light, does the clear light lens of the new LED light illuminate the Number Plate sufficiently? If not would you recommend a different Bracket that is not so far from the Rear Light housing? To me it looks like the original Bracket is too far away from the new LED Light to illuminate the Number Plate sufficiently. More than happy to be proven wrong though. The reason I ask is that I am contemplating a similar setup using the same LED Tail Light. Many thanks.
