    I have every safety relay unit from 2, that's right 2, maxim 400's. All these bikes use the same parts so yes, it will work. %25 of list price sounds fair. otherwise make me an offer. also have one sidestand switch too. it is a greasy mess but it works.

    There is a difference between a POWER Relay and a SAFETY Relay.

    The difference is in how the two Relay's are configured.

    The difference looks something like this:

    [+]<T>[+] - Power
    [- ]<B>[ -]

    [ -]<T>[+] - Safety
    [ -]<B>[+], ... T=Top

    Power Relays are Generic.
    They substitute for each-other without harm
    Bona-Fide SAFETY Relays are different.

    If you plug-in a Safety Relay where a Power Relay belongs; there's NO harm done. The Relay does not close.

    If you plug-in a POWER Relay where a SAFETY Relay belongs; a DANGEROUS Situation results.

    The Safety Circuitry malfunctions.
    The CLUTCH Lever Safety Switch gets "Reversed"
    The Starter won't engage with the Lever PULLED.
    The Starter OPERATES with the Lever RELEASED.
    ===>> EVEN -- IN -- GEAR <<===

    The Bike will LURCH Forward unexpectedly!
    A warmed-up, well-tuned Bike, ... will START.

    I still fail to see what this has to do with me selling my relays.

    The comments are intended to educate those who find themselves in need of a Relay and are unaware that Relays and Safety Relays are incompatible.

    Then, knowing you have Safety Relays for sale; they know what they're getting.

    well my blinkers used to work fine. Without touching the bulbs or anything else everything changed (with the signals only), the right one stays solid and the left one blinks but the indicator on the cluster doesn't come on. So I'm assuming the relay. now that I think about it, the bulb in the cluster for the left could be bad and the bulb or ground on the right signal frot or rear could be bad. But it happened at the same time sooooooooo. I suck cause Obviously I haven't looked into Anything!
