Hi guys,
I have just fitted four Oxford eyeshot saturn LED indicators to my 2007 sv650s after ditching the huge origianals.
I have fitted the four resistors that also came with the set and switched on-.....

The work fine and at right speed when the hazards are switched on,great I thought,until I tried turning left! When just either left or right indicators are switched on the flash too fast????

Why do the work on hazards but not just left or right???

Normally you need to get yourself an LED flasher unit 9 (ebay has plug and play ones for the sv).
They will flash fast due to the low load the led's need but with all 4 on they draw more so it slows them down to an ok speed. So unless you add more resistors but this is bulky and heat up ect.
Easier in the long run to go with the flasher unit.
