Default Hazard Flashers ?

Last street bike (if you wanna call it one) was a honda dual purpose. You had to pull out on the turn signal button to activate the hazard flashers. The F4i doesn't have that I believe. Do we even have the hazard flashers on these bikes?

no and I haven't needed them, but at the same time I don't live in a big city where I could be on the side of a freeway with no where to go.

most kawasaki's do but hondas dont just flip on a blinker and pull to the side they will atleast notice you.

Pull on the switch to turn on the hazards. Works every time.

ya most kawi's and zuk's have em...but we dont

pulling on the switch doesnt work on my f4i...

and the advantage to having hazards as opposed to just turning on a signal is that you dont have to have the bike on(w/ headlights, taillights, and everything else draining the battery) to have the hazards on...i find myself needing to use the hazards often when i am riding w/ buddies and we pull off to the side of the road for whatever reason(as im usually last in line cause im slow)

maybe someone can figure out a way to either...have a turn signal on with the bike off, or add some hazards to our bikes

No, you have to use your thumb and 1st finger. There's a little notch under the button. Pull and you'll feel a little click and your flashers will be on.
