Looking for some help here...

I want to install my new Rizoma track-01 blinkers but not sure if I should use the Rizoma resistors or buy a new relay. I want to hook the fronts up as running lights (just like the factory ones) but I only have 2 wires. I've read up on how to do this with a diode but I'm not sure what kind of diode I need. I bought some N4400's (1A) and N5404's (3A). Can anyone help me with either of these issues?

Thanks.

 

If you hook them up as running lights, the light on your dash will stat illuminated.

 

Is there anyway around that?

 

No, not unless you have a triple wire on your stalks .

 

My factory harness has 3 wires, and the new blinkers have 2 wires. I think I read somewhere that I can connect the two positives together with the use of a diode to the signals to prevent everything else from lighting up. Does that sound right?

 

yes you can, i have it done on my bike. check THIS link out.

dont forget that you still need your load resistors or electronic relay if you want the stock flasher rate

 

Would 5404 diodes work? And with respect to the resistors, do I have to worry about them getting super hot over time with the running lights on?

Thanks for all the help this far.

 

not sure if 5404s would work, as im not sure what the diffference is between the two. google could probably help you out on that. as for the resistors getting hot, i dont think so, because you would wire them inline with the blinker wire and not the running light wire, so they would only be in use with the blinker on (i think). i use one of the electronic relays, so i dont really mess with those resistors
