Mirror running light

Post by malxerr »

Hi Everyone. I just bought a Forza 125 and I noticed that the 350 has daylight mirrors.
Is there a way I can turn the mirrors indicators on my 2021 Forza 125 like on the 300/350..? Is it an OBD2 modification ?
Thanks

Don’t know if it would work on the new bikes but I did it with an old Vespa. I swapped the live/natural wire coming from and going to the flasher unit.
Indicator bulbs stayed on permanently and flashed on/off when required.
As I say this was an old Vespa, new bikes are a bit more complex.
Worth a try though.

Ps. The bulbs never lasted long. Obviously indicator bulbs are not designed to be on permanently
But I’m sure there’s an alternative out there.

Have you checked to see if the 350 mirrors will fit on your 125? Wiring it is not a problem. Just download a schematic for the 350 to see how they are hooked up.

I have been working on this quite some time, however I still did not get hold to a 350 schematics. From the mirror side indicator you definitely need to add the 3rd wire. Most probably the indicator switch needs to be replaced to the one of the 350.
This guy on youtube posted a vid to show the modification done.

Hi,
Here it's a vid from 350 disabling the persistent lights.
It may give an idea on what would be done on a 125.
