Great job dude, but to fix that Fast blinking problem, you need to use one of those Big rectangular ceramic resistors that are sold in like autozone or pepboys, bc what happends is that the LEDs dont draw enough energy to make the burnt bulb sensor to stay off, su it flashes the lights like if it had a bad bulb, but if you add the big resistor it will draw enough energy to make everything work as it is supposed to
@TCreatorO Or use an electronic flasher unit available from most car shops and mail order companies. They cost about £10 here in the UK. They have a small circuit inside to set the flash rate. It's a more modern version of the old flasher units with the strip that heats up and bends. the flasher units are availabe on ebay too.
You're probably going to want to add a custom flasher or load resistor so you turn signals flash at a more normal rate. You can find these on sites such as SuperBrightLEDs.
I think I saw your writeup online...either way, I'm headed in this direction for my bike :)

Looks good man. I want to eventually do one myself, but with white and blue LEDs instead of red and yellow. How long did this take you?

Just got all the leds in to do this myself!

buy an electronic turn signal relay and it will flash normal :)
(like a car)

On a bike I'd rather they flash fast.

Intermittent wiper relay will do the trick to slow down flashers.5$

Resistor to bring the wattage of the original unit (so it behaves the same) would be easier and cheaper.

I want to do the came thing for a car. Did you design a controler?

And I thought I was the only one doing such things. Now I am spending hours on looking at all the other bright ideas.
I like your combination-light!
