Does anyone know what the correct turn signal bulb is for a CB750?  I tried using a 1141 and it would not blink at all.  A 1156 blinks, but is a slow blink.  Pretty annoying.

Does it work better than the analog version?

Yes, vastly superior. Uses far less power.
Do you have a copy of the Honda Shop Manual or Parts List for your bike? Get one here:

just to add....http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=89750.0
kinda related, wattage rating can affect flash rate as well.
