Sure sounds like you had fun today.

The resistors are physically pretty big. they have to be to get enough surface area to dissipate the heat that they will generate. Yes they can get quite warm in use, bear that in mind when you mount them. Your two 6 ohm resistors hooked up one front and one back are equal to the one 3 ohm resistor that I used on mine. It actually does not matter where in the circuit you connect them. you could put them both right next to each other if that is easier. The reason all of the LED makers use one per bulb is so that if you are only replacing 1 bulb it will be the correct resistor. They are just doing it the easiest way for a non electrical person to understand. That is just not the easiest way to accomplish the job. Either way is electrically correct. Now I prolly just made it confusing..........................

Did you try it with just one resistor? Disconnecting one of the resistors may speed up the flash. What value resistors do you have?

There is always the sanity check to be sure you did not mess something up. Try the original flasher and bulbs to be sure all is still good. Then try changing just one turn signal to LED at a time and test.

You mean other than a string of the 3rd, 20th, 6th, and 23rd letters of the alphabet? Otherly known as Chasing The Front Wheel. This is Cowpucs specialty. he often has no idea where he is going, just keeps following the front wheel and has some wonderful adventures.

Ya what Cowpuc said. do your email thru someone other than you internet provider. That makes it easy to switch providers at will and you never have to remember all of the places that you used that email. There are a lot of "FREE" email providers that are not associated with any internet service provider. The free ones will bombard you with advertising and the paid ones will not, choice is yours.

Well this thread has not helped because you are right, laughing hurts..............ouch! I get my water from Lake Michigan, this lake has only froze over twice in my life that I know of. So my water supply seldom goes away........

Turn the heat on???? That aint even cold enough to close the bedroom windows...........

There are some flashers that are made specifically for LED, those are the ones that may burn up if used with the higher current draw of incandescent. There is noting you can do in the flasher that will burn up the LEDs. All they know is that they are getting 12-14 volts and can not tell nore care where the power comes from. You can mix and match incandescent and LED. Once upon a time I was working on a LED friendly flasher that would retain the stock features of the bike like the self canceling, I never finished that project because I got my bike working without it. The fast flashing does not look like them going on solid and bright If yours are going full bright with no flashing then you may have some other issue.

HEY! I gots a big 4X4 truck............................... The only time I ever been in the ditch (not counting ditch runs on purpose) was when a semi crossed over the center line to pass a slower car and the ditch looked a lot softer than the front of that semi.

Thanks Boss You da man.

No problem, when I find missing stuff I just make it newer and better and add more power.....................

I know for sure there were pics in #16 , #19 , #21 , #30 , I do not remember the rest.

Here is another how to thread that I seem to have lost the original photos for. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?77042-MORE-lights Thanks

Using the correct LEDs is a big part of getting it to work. 1. The LED color needs to be the color of the lens and/or the needed color output. In other words a yellow LED for the turn signals. a red LED for the brake / tail lights. 2. There are some cheap LEDs that claim to be 1157 replacements but will not work in our application. I received a set for testing from another member that could not get them to work. After a bit of testing I determined that our turn signals ground the hot lead when the turn signal is in the off part of the flash. The LEDs were wired internally so that it would end up shorting the running lights to ground during the signal off cycle. I also noticed that the cheap LEDs were less than half the brightness of the good ones. I replaced all of the lights except headlights and fog lights (those are all HID) with LEDs all from http://www.SuperBrightLEDs.com. I could not be happier with the end result. I did do a write up on what I did, I will find that thread for you.

And thru waist deep snow..............

While it certainly has been colder, even much colder than this, I still don't care for anytime the temp is below zero, especially with the wind blowing. But this is still better than a hot summer day.

That Saddlebum character sure does like to share his frigidness.

Ahhhh, Ye of little faith............. I been laid up for a while. It is still an effort to run @cowpuc favorite machine. But we are getting there. We have already had snow on the ground in ALL 50 states at the same time.

You still have to come back up here for the international and then Orlins MDs......... We will miss you..............

I just get to look at mine for a while yet, one of the "perks" of having Collector plates is that you are not allowed on the roads in the month of January.

Yes @cowpuc we are thinking of you over on this side of the pond too. You, Tippy and Sis are all in our thoughts and prayers to be ready for a full summer of CTFWing. And stop chasing the nurses, you know that they can all outrun you right now anyhow, besides, you could slip and fall on some .
