Default led blinkers popping fuse?

ok boys here it is. i have a 2000 929rr, i just put led blinkers in the front, which naturally caused hyper blinking, which then lead to the fuse blowing, now whenever i hit the right blinker the fuse blows immediatly, i purchased some resistors on ebay and when i installed one side and tried it the damn fuse popped again, perhaps i am missing something? the resistors are easy to install there is only 2 wires so i dont think i have it hooked up wrong.

You have a short somewhere. The hyper flash is not causing the fuse to blow. You may have wired them up backwards. Or might have some exposed wire somewhere.

yeah i think thats what im leaning towards now, it only blows when i use the right blinker, and the first time the fuse blew was when i came down from an endo, i was just messin with it and had it working for a while then all the sudden boom, blew fuse,
