Default update

well the old horse has 50,000+ on the odometer had some issues.
That little spring that returns the shift linkage broke wow they burried that one in the back of the trany. New front tire went flat while riding to get the new tire. Broke the chin spoiler off on the edge of the drive way. Brake light switch failed and signal lights quit. Still working on the signals but hand signals always work.

I've given up on the indicators on my '90 FXRS and just use hand signals now.

That bike is gorgeous, BTW.

Have you looked at the range of Badlands products? They make a flasher unit that works like the original one did. Or do you have something else wrong?

Default flasher

thanks for the good words
honestly I have not really looked into the signal issue more than finding out where the flasher might be I think about it after I leave the yard and forget about it when I get back
