Ok i need a couple of Q's answered for me the unenlightened.  Mainly if I have to replace the blinker fuse? thingy!!! What one do I get and where is it on the bike?  Pics would be great or at least a good description of where it can be found on the bike thanks.

from my site:

<<Note: The bulbs that come with the Buell turn signals are different wattage than stock GS and will make the signal blink faster than before. I've been told this will not harm anything-leave them as is at your own risk. All it takes is a Tridon 552 generic relay flasher, I believe. Available at any auto parts store. About $2-$3.
Another alternative is to replace bulb with one that matches the GS stock bulb but in amber. This will require you to remove the inner amber lens of Buell signal in order to fit the physically larger GS bulb.
--------
Some that have done the Buell turn signal swap have had a problem where the blinker turns on steady without blinking.  It was discovered that it had to do with not having enough draw across the flasher unit. By installing a new generic flasher, available from Wal-Mart for about $2, (It's just a round cylinder with two connectors, it's hidden behind the plastic anyway) solved the problem, or install the same one as mentioned above.>>


I think the flasher relay is under the seat near the battery on the right side. You might be able to follow the turn signal wiring to it.
