Flasher relay location: NSR125R

[scoobiemandan]

Okay, so I've searched high and low and can't easily spot the flasher relay which I need to swap out! I saw on another thread someone reckoned on the newer models they were located between the tool box and rear lights but that ain't the case!

Anyone able to point me to its location and what needs to come off to access it? It's a 2001 Foxeye.

Cheers

According to this it's on the left side of the bike, possibly around the seat area.

Thanks pal. I had a look in that area and just couldn't see it? It's most likely there but needs removal of faring and fuel tank I suspect! Trouble is, it's cold and windy outside and I don't wanna go removing things wastefully

If I can establish exactly here it is and what I need to remove I'm pretty sure I can get it done as quick as possible and with as little ill health to my wimpy self

It's a motorbike, there aren't that many place to hide things like that. Get a set of allen keys and take the rear fairings off, the seat and you're left with most of the most significantly likely places uncovered.

hi,
seeing as theres only 2 relays to see, it should take you 30secs.
lift the seat, & iirtc its the rear most relay. the one nearer the battery is the starter relay.
hth.

IF it helps identifying it its a 2 prong relay with prongs positioned in a L shape..... Shouldn't be to far from the battery

hi,
tbh a relay is a relay.
the one you pay 20 quid for from honda will be no better thanm a generic relay from a motor factors.
just remove the old unit & replace.
im not sure i see the problem.
I would be more concerned at the state of the wiring. remove all that black tape & join the wires properly ie solder & heatshrink or bullet or spade connectors crimped on.
oh & your bikes filthy lol.

cheers,
GAZ

The problem is that it makes no sense to butcher something like this just to save a few pennies! Also the fact I've now gotta faff around with wiring......which is not really my strong point! Give me mechanical stuff fine, electrical and I turn all girly

Not a genuine part alains, listed as a pattern part! Nonetheless, correct fitment for it's purpose!
