    Turn Signal Flash Rate '77 GS 750

    So I took off the Vetter, replaced with a "new" headlight, new front directionals and for some reasons my flasher took a crap on me. From what I could find a new flasher is $55 from Deland Motorsports and a week to get to me so I go to O'Riley and get one off the shelf. Installed it on the original holder with an aluminum spacer, different diameter from stock to shelf unit. The flash rate is normal with the headlight off but when I turn the headlight on the flash rate is halved.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Is the slow flash rate occurring with the engine reved up? System voltage is low with the headlamp on until the engine revs up.

      Get a digital flasher. They flash the same rate no matter the load attached.

      But as Nessism says, Could there be a charging problem ?
