Blinker upgrade with LED bulbs


Recommended Posts

Hello all!

 I have A 2007 Yamaha Royal Star Midnight Venture. I am wanting to upgrade the stock incandescent bulbs to LED bulbs. The current bulbs I have today are 5VN-83311-00-00 bulbs that have 3 offset prongs on them! Has anyone made this upgrade? Can you please advise me which bulb to purchase? Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated!

You might want to email Kuryakin. I believe they have led bulbs for Yamaha. Your bulb might be just an amber 1157 bulb....?

Regardless, know that you will still have to either buy a load resister or a new/ modified flasher relay. Led bulbs don't have the resistance needed to properly trigger the relay. A load resister adds resistance to the circuit, mimicking the original incandescent bulb. So you gain less heat, brighter flashing but no gain in battery savings.
