Hey riders,
I just installed a undertail kit for my '03 636. I soldered the connections and all the signals work but they operate at hyper speed. Is there not enough resistance? To much voltage? Am I in danger of frying any fuses of connections? Any ideas would help thanks.

not enough resistance!

in this case, resistance is NOT futile.

Monky's right, you need a load resistor. Assuming you got led signals. The bigger outfits selling led bike stuff can set you up.

I have a couple of resistors if you want'em.

or you could just leave it as is, nothing will be harmed

Motaboy picked up those resisters a month or so ago. Hopefully they're working for him.

:imwithstupid: after I put in a integrated tail light on my 1000, they blinked really fast... it's not going to hurt anything... and I think it grabs more attention since it's not the standard slow blink that everyone is used to.

Ya it took a while but I finally got the blinkers back to normal. I picked up a flash regulator from Custom LEDS and it was a simple plug in. Thanks to Princess for the recommendation and to Barn for letting have his resistors. Unfortunately I didn't the resistors because I didn't know how to hard wire them. Any way it was pretty cheap fix. Thanks again to all who replied. ;)
