[QUOTE="Rednaxs60, post: 220853, member: 4617"] Good work day, short but good. Not going to put the old mud flap back on - does nothing for the look or performance of the bike and was not an OEM item. Finished buttoning up the back end:[ATTACH type="full" alt="Rear View Together.jpg"]21314._xfImport[/ATTACH] Did a test of the signals with the LED lights installed. When LED lights are installed, the load on the circuit is less and as such, you get the hyper flash going on. Bought an LED flasher that is supposed to eliminate this hyper flash. The one I bought was supposed to have a variable pot to adjust the flash rate, but the one sent did not have this. It is a three prong signal flasher, this is needed to connect in the system so the self cancelling function works. This is the one I thought I ordered:[ATTACH type="full" alt="LED Hyper Flash Relay.jpg"]21315._xfImport[/ATTACH]This is the one received and connected in the circuit:[ATTACH type="full" alt="LED Hyper Flash Relay 2.jpg"]21316._xfImport[/ATTACH]Have this signal flasher temporarily installed to trial the circuit. Took two videos, one with the OEM flasher and showing the hyper flash:[ATTACH type="full" alt="OEM Signal Flasher.MOV"]21317._xfImport[/ATTACH] This is the video with the LED signal flasher installed, no hyper flash:[ATTACH type="full" alt="LED Signal Flasher.MOV"]21318._xfImport[/ATTACH]More to follow on this when I have the front fairing on. Have installed LED lights in the running and brake light circuits. May have to install a ballast resistor or two depending on whether I get a light indication on the dash. Had the engine started and went through the gears. Happy with everything so far. [/QUOTE]
