Default blinker trouble

Ive recently bought a 03 honda cbr600rr. Its a real nice bike. It has white LEDs for the blinkers instead of the stock ones. They dont blink! They just stay on solid when u signal. The indicator on the dash doesnt blink either. Any help would be great. Oh yea there also not that bright in the day and i was wondering if anyone knew a brand that is really bright. (Oh yea this is the stupid question. How do u post a comment in regards to someones posted question or topic??)

You need to put resistors on those front signals. I changed my front signals out and my rear light for leds and I had to put resistors on them or else they just stayed on solid like yours do. They are really cheap, prolly can get the resistors for about $10 and you need only use 1 resistor per side. you can just splice them into your existing wiriing, no need to cut anything.

You need a heavy duty resistor. I know nothing of ohms or stuff like that. You need one resistor for the left side and 1 for the right side. You splice the resistor between the ground and hot wire on each side.
