bigger pic maybe of those bits but they look like relays or flasher units,both very useful for your trike.i've dip and main beam relayed,and the main ignition switch as well then you need a flasher and a hazard relay.

Today seemed to fly by ? And not much done ?  I started to reassemble the springer..pick up the new front disc which iv had turned up (along with the propshaft disc) tomorrow ..so maybe I can get the front rolling soon.? I screwed on a rad guard mesh thing today ? Will most likely make up something more interesting for it soon ? |

You had a brake disc made? I've always wondered if they're hardened in some way or just mild steel?

Well there is a company in London that makes discs..but iv had some done by a guy I know..local turner..the one for the propshaft is only for the handbrake /emergency..and seeing my mate turn down discs from bikes on his lathe so we can use them on our chops I'm assuming they aren't hardened ?

The best material for discs is,
Cast iron,It's soft.
