Please don't tell me there's a kit to purchase, I know that.
And I don't think the kit replaces the stock rear bulbs.
I replaced my rear bulbs with Lamonster LED's but can't get ride of the Hyper flash. I tried resetting per Lamonster directions - hold down the emergency flasher button for 30 seconds, then turn emergency flashers off, then allow the turn signal to signal once, then turn off the bike. Then do the other Right or left you did not do the first time. I tried this process many times but still have hyper flash. Don't know if not having front LED's in the blinkers is the issue. Any one know or know what I'm doing wrong???

Rapid Blinker Correction
This works no need to use resistors.
Should your blinkers go into Hyper-flash, you can try the following procedure to fix this.
1. Turn the bike on.
2. Hold down the hazard light switch on for 30-45 seconds.
3. Turn the hazards off and put the right signal on and turn the bike off right after the first blink on the blinker.
4. Repeat the same process for the left side.

Would this apply to the F3 T also?... also what is the bulb type # and how many bulbs per side(can the LED conversion apply also to the front turn signals?)

Bruce I have tried this process many times on my F3 and I still have hyper flash. I don't know if it is because the front blinkers are still stock and only the rear blinkers swapped out with LED's??
Thanks, Jeff

Jeff, It doesn't make any difference whether the front are still stock, but you must be very quick turning off the key (after the first blink) I have done several now.

Bruce,
I've tried the process many times, but still not working. Let me ask this question, does the bike ignition need to be in the on position (which is what I've been doing and Lamonster did in their video) or does the bike actually need to be running, as someone noted below.
Thanks,
Jeff

Yes you have to turn the key on but you do not have to start the motor.

How many 1157R bulbs are required per side😎

This has worked for me:
Engine running, hold down the hazard button for 30 seconds, then activate both side turn signals, one then the other, while holding down the hazard button and then turn off the ignition. You may need to do this more than once but it's always worked for me. I originally had only changed out the tail light bulbs but now have LED's all the way around.
Just another crappy day in Paradise....Aloha!

This only partially works on the F3S. Since the bike shares the same lamps for stop and turn functions, there is no provision in the software to calibrate both instances. So do the procedure above without your foot on the brake and it sort of works. Until you hit your brakes......
On the F3S, if you are replacing the stock lamps, the resistors or lamps with the resistors built in are going to be needed to get rid of the hyperflash.
