LED Flasher Relay - which one?

Post by ltdslipdiff »

Pure lazy I know, haven't even wired up the LED's to see if I need one yet ! At the moment I have LED mirror indicators and flush 20w side repeators. At the rear I have the integrated tail signals which are shite and also the mini LED's on the plate holder. Am I likely to need an LED relay, and if so, which one? A link to ebay would be great. Lastly, where do I find the flasher relay?

Thank you - Lazy Fred

Garfield has nothing on you :lol:
When I had LED indicators I used a Motrax flasher unit meant for LED's. I'm sure there are cheaper options about. May be other forum members can advise on that. As you say, best try yours first to see if you will need one. I'm guessing you will.

The flasher unit sits near the rectifier on the righthand side (rear brake pedal side) of the bike in behind the seat/tail plastics,

I use a Warrior universal thing bought through Demon tweeks Ebay. Required snipping the original plug off and putting some spades on but it does the trick with right flash rate.

The advert shows some cabling which you don't get... :?

Leave the flasher relay alone and just fit a resistor in line with the rear ones.
You can get cheap ones from Hong Kong (if they arrive) but these are from the UK.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
