Well a flasher relay is like $5, R/R is basically a switch and try thing. You can however put a meter on the battery while it is running to see what kind of voltages you get. While running it should be between 13 and 14.5 volts depending on RPM. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

After cleaning the carburetors and serviced the front break, the engine is running great. I have a problem with the lights which are not stable. In particular the turning signal. When the engine is idling, the lights flash ok, but when I ride at higher rpm they start to flash erratically. The intensity of the headlight also changes when I ride. Before purchasing new parts (flasher relay or regulator/rectifier) I would like to do some checks to determine which part is not working. Is there a simple test I can do to determine whether the relay or the regulator is wrong? I cannot see any other part that may produce this diagnostic. Thank!
