Re: Yamaha R1 Flush Signals Installed

It's flashing too fast because they are LEDs..........they have much less resistance than regular bulbs, so the flasher unit thinks the bulbs are burning out. You can do a number of things to add resistance to fix the problem, I just haven't done it yet.

It took 15 minutes to install. It's extremely easy.

Do these fit nicely into the stock 'holes'? Nice and bright? Are they capable of being used as running lights aswell?

They fit perfectly in the stock holes. They are bright and they could be used as running lights, but you would have to run an extra wire.

Another reason to have the POD lights as turnsignals.

Hey, looks very nice! And I wouldn`t mention the fast flashing if they`re well seen from the front of the bike!
Congratulations!
