Does your electronic flasher with LEDs flash at a faster rate than the OEM flasher with standard bulbs? Mine seems a little too fast. Like "blink, blink, blink," instead of "blink, quick pause, blink".  Gives it that "I definitely modified something" look. I wonder if a different brand flasher would have a flash rate closer to stock.

I did install an electronic flasher, and it is flashing at a normal rate.  It's doing the "blink, quick pause, blink".  I don't recall exactly where I got it, but I can take a look to see if there are some part numbers on it for you. I'll try to take a look at it tonight.

I also have another one (I haven't tried it though) where the flash speed is adjustable.  It's this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B011BTMDQM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I finally had the opportunity to take the bike out for a short run on Saturday. 

I know it has been said many times on this forum, but what a difference the front springs and rear shock make.  It really does feel like a different bike, I really like it.  I'll have to play around with tuning the R6 shock as time permits.

Thanks for your feedback on the suspension upgrades. I've decided to do the same on my bike.

I took a quick look at it, and there are no numbers on it that I can see right now.  I'll see if I can find some time this weekend to pull it out and look closer.  I did try the one I provided the link for on a bench test...and it worked.  I was able to adjust the speed as needed.

If the one you linked to works well, no need to go through the trouble of pulling the other one out.
