That's your ignition module. You want a small rectangular metal box with 2 tabs on it. Probably on the right fork up between the triple trees.

This.

On my '90, the TSM is ziptied to the top of the right fork.

Bought my 1990 FLHS new and the chaps above are quite right. Probably held on with a couple of zip ties.

Looks like 2 flashers right there...an 87 may or may not have a "module"...1990 was the first year for self canceling turn signals on all models...which ones got it in 87 was up in the air...only one I see listed for sure in 87 is an FLT

It must not have a module. It does have two flashers. Badlands said it fit hat model but it must not. I will have to order the universal one and return this one. Thanks so much.

Yeah, 2 flasher units, one for the lights, one for the emergency flashers. You can replace them with a universal LED compatible 2 wire module from any auto parts store.

Tom's as sharp as a knife! I've replaced my stock flasher module once, when they were still available, but will use a Badlands or similar in future, if/when this one dies.
