    I bought some blinker leds and a led relay but I'm using the factory switch, when I try to signal the lights barely light up... what relays have you guys used or kits? As of now I have what's in pictures.

    The flasher you purchased is not compatable with the Yamaha wiring harness. You need a 2 prong with a separate ground wire. Or if you still have regular bulbs in the signal indicator on the dash you can use a standard 2 prong electronic flasher that is available at most box auto parts stores. You will lose the auto cancel function going this route.
    The ground terminal on the new relay is connection to the cancel signal wire on your bike and that is why they don't work.

    Double check the wiring on the new signals. They should at least light up and be bright.
