Question 4 way flashers
Does any one know if on the 2012 UC Limited has 4 way flashers?? I tried and a friend tried but seems there are missing on mine... DID HD do away with the safety issue?

I don't have a 12 but I'm assuming they would be turned on the same way...hold both left and right signal buttons down at the same time.

I tried them on my '11 Street Glide a while back and couldn't get them to come on. After reading this post, I got my owner's manual out and on page 46 it lists them. I guess I didn't hold the buttons down long enough. Maybe HD lengthened the time you have to hold down the buttons?

On my 12 FLHXSE you need to have the ignition in either the on or accessory position to engage the 4 ways. Same for disengaging.
