I've just put some new indicators on my derbi senda and they flash a lot faster than the original ones?

Before you ask, both new and old indicators are bulbs, NOT LEDs

How do i slow them down or shall I just leave them flashing faster

Thanks

My right hand indicators flash normal, the left hand flash faster than the right due to one of the bulbs in the left side being the wrong one, therefore causing the other left bulb to blink faster aswell.

Get the same rated/spec bulbs that were in the old indicators.

You have the wrong wattage bulbs, use the old bulbs in the new indicators, if they're the wrong fitting you'll have to buy new ones of the correct wattage!
