Default LED's flashing at different rate

I like having a lot of light in the back of the bike. I tend to stick with Harley accessories so I added the stick on saddlebag lights (PN 67800241A) and the "keystone" lights on the bag supports (PN 67800589). When I turn the turn signal on, the LED's blink at different times. It's more than just one turning on faster than the other. They are not in sync after a few blinks. I'm looking for input from someone who has this same combination on their bike. Do you see the same thing happening? (This is not the "fast blinking" of the green arrow on the dash - that is OK.) Thanks for any help.

Try putting the 4 way flashers on for a few minutes to sync things.

I have the Harley Electra-Glo stick on bag lights & the Stealth under bag lights. (In addition to the CD Fillerz & BAL tail light.)
I've never had an issue with them flashing at a different rate.

This should fix your problem. It is what is recommended by Custom Dynamics if you have this issue with their turn signals. I let my flashers run for about 4 minutes, and everything is great.

Thanks. I'll try turning the flashers on tonight to see if it makes any difference. I did that when I added the CD Ringz on the front.

I have the exact setup as you, put the flashers for a minute or so.
Then ride and use the turn signals a few times should do it for you.
