We're gonna have to have a NW GR650 meet at some point. On second thought, the universe may implode with three in the same place at the same time!

Ha! Rest assured, I've tried 3 and nothing happened. You guys will be fine.
 
Well my bike is in pieces as I try and sort out a electrical issue and thats fine as the snowmobiles are pulled outta hibernation and its that time of year to smell like 2 stroke :)
 
haha i usually just take the dirt bike out on the orchard. never enough snow here

and .....were back!
Thanx to Big Rich for coming thru ... once again on parts.
Installed new to me fuse box , and now I have power .... unlimited POWER! lol
Turn signal relay works Rich but doesn't flash :(
Still gota take the tank to my fabricator to fix and then paint and back on the RD!

Oh and soulreaper .......
This was last sunday ;)

Hmmmm.... do all 4 individual signal lights work? And are they stock sizes? There's a couple different problems that can cause that, but I'm not sure where your system is at.
 
all lights come on when I indicate them and they are small bullets.
all electrical connections have been gone thru .
 
Ah, I see. Most likely those small bullet signals are drawing less amperage than the stock lights. So you'll need an electronicrelay, usually found at Autozone or similar. I rrecommend the ones from superbrightleds, personally.

Sorry man.

Electronic relay ? Please indulge me and excuse my ignorance .
Possibly a part # as well .
 
Normal turn signal relays rely on a bi-metal strip that heats up and bends to make and break electrical contact. Flick the switch, the light turns on, current flows through the bi-metal "reed", heats it up, bends it, then the contact is opened, then it cools down and bends back, closing the circuit, rinse, repeat. LEDs draw such a low current, the bi-metal strip only heats up and bends a little and and then cools quickly. This causes a fast blinking cycle, or no blink at all if the LEDs draw so little current that the bi-metal never heats up enough to bend it in the first place. Electronic blinker relays use a timer circuit to control the blink rate and they don't care how much current your signals draw. This one will work:

Gotchya
That's what I thought . Brings me back to my VW Beetle years.
Well my bullets are not LED so I suspect the blinker relay is INOP.
I can here it click but I guess its not heating and cooling as it doesn't flash but lights just come on.
 
I can send you my original GR650 flasher relay if you want it. I'm using an electronic one now for my LED turn signals. Send me a PM with your address and I'll pop it in the mail this weekend.
