Nice look. Not passenger friendly though.

Fixed the link to play here. Interesting video. Just wish it covered the flat four versions.

Still waiting on seat but I have cleaned her up a bit. Also playing with contrast colors which are now in. So timing belt covers are different color from valve covers and so on. Also installed rear blinkers.

Still waiting on seat, could be another 30 days. In the meantime I'm connecting different signals (not led's) and strange things are happening.
When i flip the turn signal switch, the rear signal turns on and stays lit, does not blink and the front signal is already lit then goes off when i flip turn signal.

Possible bad relay flasher?

 

[mcgovern61]

Could be the flasher, ground or wiring is not connected to the flasher correctly. If there are too many lamps wired to the flasher (from incorrect wiring) the flasher can stop. It is most likely (in my opinion) a flasher gone bad.

 

[Ansimp]

+1 on bad flasher or incorrect load for bi metal flasher.

i purchased an electronic 3 prong novita flasher. how do i connect this puppy? prongs are labelled P, L and the 3rd is rubbed off but might be an X. Wires on stock flasher are gray which was connected to L on stock, White with greef line which was connected to B on stock. There is a dark green wire by the other 2 and it was not connected since the stock flasher only had 2 prongs. I connected the gray to L on new flasher, white with green line to X and dark green to the P and it blew a fuse.

I managed to get the rear blinkers to work. I guess you don't hook up to the "P" but front blinkers still stay on and don't blink, uurrrggghhhh :head bang:

 

[mcgovern61]

I had no success with the electronic flasher and went back to a standard.

The gray wire goes to your hand switch and completes the circuit for the signal. The white/green wire is positive from the fuse. The green wire is ground for when you use a standard 3 prong flasher.

 

[Ansimp]

The P is pilot lamp.
The L is load or lamps
The X is battery or ignition
You should only require X and L for your bike

Blinkers are on and work great. will get a pic soon. Took the $20 electronic flasher back to store , since i found a non electronic lying around from something and it works great.
Checked the seat store in Vietnam and it is now showing it is ready to be picked up for mailing, so this is good news. probably another week or so. :clapping:
thanks for the help on wiring the relay. :good:
