ended up replacing the flasher relay with an electronic one, Badlands Metric Flash Pro which eliminated the need for me to mount resistors for my LED turn signals.  Industrial Grrrl, I this a "plug and play" replacement. I hate the resistors I have to have to run my Rizoma indicators. The under-seat area is a disaster! |

yes, replace the flasher relay with this unit. It's much cleaner and neater than mounting resistors, and don't have to worry about heat. The recommendation came from Chris Kelly |

Got a part number for the relay you used? Does chris sell them? I'd reatehr kick him the cash for one that some random online store.
I've got the resistor rats nest under the seat of my 900 that needs dealing with.
And just a though about your new tank. If you're going to clear coat it, you could use different finishing materials on the metal to do your logos and or stripes. For example you polish the tank, but then mask in some center stripes and use some 600 or finer grit paper or a wire brush to cut in the stripes. Just a thought... seem like it could be cool

Yes, ca-cycleworks offer them. The part # is 2050-0029. It was literally plug and play for the 2000 - 2001 electrics. |

Thanks chromo! This seems like a perfect mod to do along with my plan to make a new under seat tray while I heal up.

Yuu,
thanks for the suggestion/ideas about the tank... I haven't even stripped it yet.. so I have still have time to think about what I want to do. I've been waiting to see what it looks like stripped and playing with different finishes before I decide.

Duck-Stew, thank you for the kind words  I've been lurking around for a while... I was so disgusted with my monster and all the problems I was experiencing that I didn't feel like being around here for a while  and I spent some time (along with friends like Howie) fighting the EPA exhaust bill that reared it's ugly head in NYC.

IG, you are entirely welcome. I love to watch and see what your Monster becomes next..... Yes, I stalk your bike from the left coast vicariously through this board.
Take care, keep the angry bits up ('cuz I can't call them shiny...),

It looks like this unit doesn't work with the newer monsters as they don't have a flasher unit. Does anyone have any experience with this? |

IG Always thought it was a travesty your bike didn't make the Monster Challenge finals, it (and Chris Platzer's bike) were my faves.

It looks like this unit doesn't work with the newer monsters as they don't have a flasher unit. Does anyone have any experience with this? The flasher unit exists on the newer Monsters (2002 & up), but it's just an integral component of the ECU so it's not separate like the older bikes were. Are you experiencing problems with the flasher unit on your bike? PM me or maybe start another thread describing the issues. |

Yes, Chris Kelly installed one in the newer 5.9 style bikes (Candice's 620). So yes, I'm pretty certain it can work, but I'd confirm with ca-cycleworks for the specifics. |
