T6.5 would be a #24 type bulb ( smaller than 194) . We offer them here:

24 LED Bulb - 1 SMD LED Wedge Base | Miniature Wedge Base LEDs | LED Car Bulbs | Super Bright LEDs

Where did you get the LED relay and what is the part number if it is a Honda relay? I had to put 2 resistors on each one of my F/R Rizoma LED turn signals to get them to flash properly. Works OK but I don't like how warm they get when they have been flashing for awhile. I did not have any issue with the indicator bulbs when I did this.

You may also want to take a look at Bluegauges.com. They did the reverse indiglo for my 96 cluster.

Thanks...Nick

I use the LF-1-S-FLAT led ready relay. Order from superbrightled.com $8.95 plus $2 shipping. Got in 2days.

LF1-S-FLAT Universal Motorcycle Electronic Flasher | Flashers & Load Resistors | Car Bulb Installation Supplies | LED Car Bulbs | Super Bright LEDs

Fits most Honda bikes....the member recommend to me had a newer model 1000rr. Only differences is that it does not produce a clicking sound like the oem one. Just plug and play....Odd thing is that when I had the tail lights led, I did not need this relay, the oem ones flash normal, think because I still have the old filament signal bulb on. Now once I went all LED including the Front R/L....oem relay flash very fast. So I got this LF-1-S-FLAT relay. Plug in, did the 3 wire to 2 wire using diodes, works great but then my dash signal indicator flashes dim. So I believe using a Led bulb replacement will fit it because led don't need as much load.

I'll post an update once I get to swapping the cluster bulbs....never disassemble the speedo before? Hope its not too hard, do I need to pull the head cowl off? Does. The socket comes out from the back? Can I just pull it back and swap the bulb?

I never actually pulled the cluster apart. I sent my gauges to bluegauges.com to have the indiglo conversion. Once I had the gauges off of the bike you can pop the bulb sockets out from the back of the gauges and indicator cluster and change them. There should be no need to pull the cluster apart. (at least on my 96 it was that way).

Thanks for the flasher #..

Here's the link that help me convert 3 wire to 2 using diodes....so my front signal is now running lights....great upgrade for a older bike. It was after this mod, when my cluster signal indicator start flashing dim....hope replacing the bulb with a led one fix it...it should because dim mean loads are very minimum and led only need a bit to work.

Thanks for the info on the running lights. May tackle that once my rotator cuff surgery heals up. The cost of doing the indiglo was 99 plus shipping the gauges to him in New York. Took about 2 weeks. had to send them back due to an issue where they didn't work right. He stood behind his work 100% and got them back to me in 3 days. lifetime guarantee on his installation also.
