So my bike just rolled 4000km over on the odometer and just as a present it decided to have the turn signals stop working.
I was on my way to work with it waiting at a traffic light with my left turn signal on. they were working fine all morning and never had a problem before. I was just looking around waiting for the light and when it turned green I took off and made the corner, when I went to go cancel the turn signal I noticed that the signal was not on anymore, but I was able to click the switch to cancel it.
So I played around with them and neither the left or right signal would work.
When I arrived at work I shut the bike off and let it sit for a few minutes and then tried them again. This time they worked, but they were flashing very very slow.
When I went to go leave they had completely stopped working again. So I called the dealer and they told me they had not run into this yet and to bring it in. so I dropped it off on Saturday and they will look at it throughout the week.
I don't think its the switch because when I turn the signals on the front bulb running light shuts off. so it appears to be getting the command for signals.
Probably just a flasher , I would have looked into it myself but being under warranty ill let the dealer take care of it.
This scares me, the bike is only 2 1/2 months old and already has an electrical issue, I asked them if the extended warranty would cover things like this and they were unsure. The brochure said it covers meters and wire harnesses . I think ill be buying the 5 year extended warranty. With this being the first model year for the bike its bound to have odd issues and I don't want to be stuck with a lemon. To many electrical things to go wrong. and for $760 for 5 years unlimited mileage it seems like good peace of mind.
Just thought id let you guys know of this problem so you can keep an eye out on yours. Ill let you know what was wrong when I find out.
