As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

My fiberglass Saddle bag with Led Turn signals

Thought you may find this helpful or interesting,
my ride has (had) the stock Suzuki turn signals since restoring the bike the year before.
decide to Order some (ebay) new saddle bags Fiberglass wire rimmed black with locks And bulb lights (wanted to lock up my tools and rain gear) big enough for rain gear my vest and tools etc..

As often happens the front turn signals don't pull enough Amps now that the rear signals are Leds and wont flash after this type of mode
( used a bright white led light style 48 SMD draws 270ma and Yellow 8 led strip)

Found the easiest way to get the LED and bulb turn signals to work is to replace the stock left side turn relay with a 2 pin (1979 1000E)stock setup. Used the Novita # LL552 at advance auto for 6 bucks.

Removed the Suzuki solenoid style flasher relay and plugged in the #552 and done flashing away. (note had to add a tyrap base tie with a tyrap as the fit is loose also the tyrap makes it easy to hang back on the post for the original relay.

the Front turn signals are still Suzuki original Bulbs the rear are my choices of leds and they are Brighter then my stock tail light Videos below. one is at idle and the other video is running around 3K rpm forgot to jog down the RPM after doing some testing.
