Re: Hazard lights on a bandit?
Theyre on the right hand side under the 'auto-kill' switch, at least they are on mine, not sure about sin them for filtering though

Re: Hazard lights on a bandit?
don't think you should have them on... use the right indicator instead...

Re: Hazard lights on a bandit?
What are the hazzard lights supposed to signafy when filtering?
As a matter of interest? Same as the "cloaking device activated" that cage drivers use when illegally parked on double yellows? Just drive normally, and safely. No need for hazzard lights, cages will see your light before they see the hazzards, and when you go by, they will just think "there is some biker trying to get away with filtering illegally" L.

They are not very visible from the front (as your headlight would be much more visible) and from the back all they show is someone trying to make excuses for filtering because they think they should not be doing it. I'm not saying that is your reason, I am saying that is the impression that the cage drivers will have of you. It is like the hazard lights on illegally parked cars.

Re: Hazard lights on a bandit?
reason i was thinking of doing it was the other night i was stuck in traffic
(cage) in the left lane, had a look in the mirror could mostly see white lights. a bike came filtering up between lanes and his headlight kinda blended in with the lights of the cages, another bike came up then with hazards on and stood out a shit load more. dont see any problem using hazards there, any little thing to make yourself stand out a bit more is worth the effort in my book. and fook what the cagers think, they're only jealous!

Re: Hazard lights on a bandit?
they are on the left handside on the k5 bandit but dont use em unless you have to stop all of a sudden (like there is going to time to turn them on)
i only use em to say thanks to cages or lorrys that pull in to let me pass
