Turn signal problem
Ok so when i turn on my right turn signal it flashes eraticly and the red key light in the speedo lights up some times it will go off and then they work fine. Its kinda strange but the left side works with no problems. I think i have a bad ground in the signal houseing can anyone shed some ideas.

My bike came from the factory with turn signal problems that ended up being a frayed wire ‘deep inside the wiring harness’…. Took them forever to fix it.
Hope yours isn’t as big of a deal…..

I would looked for a skinned wire where the harness comes out of the rear fender strut under the fender.
Water in the electronics can also cause this. Wash the bike just prior to this issue?

I didnt wash it prior to this starting at first the left side did it but then all of a sudden it stopped. About a week later the right side started to act up then no problem and this morning it started again and hasent quit since. on my way home for lunch it would flutter then start to flash really fast then when i braked it would stop and then start to flutter again its stange.

Hey thanks for the help guys it turns out that the wires under the rear fender came loose from the clamp and tried to wrap themselvs around tire, fortunatly the rear tire had diferent plans and taught those wires a lesson. So i had to repair them and then reclamp them and its all good now. Thanks again
