Turn signal won't blink

Hey guys,

I got my bike going last night after having it sit for about two years... I know I know - I'm an awful person.


Oddly the only problem I'm having is with the right blinker, left one works fine. But when I hit the right indicator, the light stays on solid on the rear - nothing on the front right side.

Any ideas?

bad bulb? broken connection somewhere?


Anyways, I'm back 8D

Is your bike stock? If so, bad bulb I believe.

Make sure it is a bad bulb and not just a bit loose like mine was.

Yeah take apart the indicator. It's super easy. Unscrew it from the fairing, then take out the philips head screw and check the connections. If they are loose then it might not work intermittently.

Source: Replaced 2 sets of indicators because dickheads smashing them or knocking over my bike with their land barges...
