Hi guys,
I know this has probably been asked a million times, but is there an easy and way to stop the quick flashing of LED indicators, other than individual resistors?

Ive got a 2009 GSX650F and put new indicators on, but the bundle of wires and resistors look unsightly under the seat, and horrid behind the front fairings when you look at it from the side.

Is there a simple solution (Other than go bulb) to fix not only the flashing but the annoying bundle of crap that goes with the normal fix?

Yes. Get a flasher unit that is electronic rather than load-dependent.

(I know thats a bloody stupid question, but best to check)

Ive seen these before but didnt know if they'd actually do the job, but ill give it a go in that case.

Yes but make sure to get one that has the same style plug as your current flasher relay.

It's pointless to hack around with wires to make them fit a flasher relay when there is very likely a flasher relay out there that fits already.

I used one to fix the quick flashing on my R1. Previous owner had fitted resistors for rear LED indicators but something failed. I couldn't be bothered to diagnose exactly what, so I fitted one of these and it sorted it.
