Woo Hoo get that thing on the road..................

 

....what do you mean by flasher?...the actual signal light or the relay?

 

Oh...my led relay is 3 pronged...works great...I wouldn't know about wiring in a 2 pronged one...but electrics are not my forte

 

The terminals on the new flasher relay probably don't match the stock connector. Should just be a matter of rearranging the wires/connectors in the stock connector. I think mine had ground/+ swapped.

Edit: A three-prong also will not work right away. The third terminal on the stock connector goes to the auto-canceller, which won't work with a non-stock relay. Remove the auto-canceller and the third pin goes nowhere, so a three-pin still won't work.
It'd be an easy fix to make a three-pin work too. Just jumper the third pin's wire in the auto-canceller connector to the ground wire in the same connector.

 

Check the handlebar switch, bad connection or something...clean and the use dielectric grease.

 

What don't you like about the LED lights? I love the ones I have on mine.

 

Well that sounds like a bad relay or if its here and there a bad connection somewhere. LEDs are great a lot of light from a little diode.

 

What did you end up doing with the auto-canceller?

 

If it's still installed that's probably the source of your problems.

 

Up high between the carbs and battery box. Rectangular looking thing.
It works by controlling the ground wire at the flasher relay connector. Not sure with your 2 pin flasher relay but double-check in the flasher relay connector whether you're using the Yellow/Green wire. If you are it needs to be rewired from going to the auto-canceller to go straight to ground.
