Make sure your bike is STARTED when you try, not just the key in the on position

go down to your local bike shop and pick up 2 resistors, place on the line for your blinker. They may blink faster than stock, but its nothing you can't learn to live with. The hardest part is finding a place to put them. good luck

you need resistors up front cause of the leds. if you want them to blink at a normal rate, use resistors on the back also. make sure the wires are connected right also, sounds silly but i made that mistake and took forever to figure out, cause i "thought" they were correct. good luck.

JSYKFFR, The resistors go on in series, not parallel.

Connect one end of the resistor to the positive wire, and the other to the negitive wire. then attach the signal as normal.

God i hope this works... Please see illustration below.

R \
E \+++++ Signal Positive

T /-------- Signal Negitive

I got the resistors and it slowed the signal down...so it works! but i can't find a good spot for the resistors...if you have resistors please give me a hint of where i can put them. thanks.
