Hi all, I am new to this forum, I have a 1975 XS650B, It is a GREAT BIKE, I have had about 6 of them since my first ( 35 years ago). The 75 is the best of all of them by FAR.
When I got my 650 it was a one owner bike, It had suffered the same disgrace as 50% (or more) of them and had the turn signals removed.
The used bike shop had put flashers back on it the rear signals were correct but the front were after market ones that bolted to the handle bars.
They were the most hideous things. I bought some NOS front flashers, the left works fine but the right doesn't work, the rear flasher comes on but does not flash.
I switched wires left for right on the front and the problem follows the flasher so it doesn't seem to be a ground issue as the right front works when the left wire is connected.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Orion
