can anyone tell me why my left indicator flashes faster than the right one [cb400/4 1978]

possible different rated bulbs or a bad earth on the slower flashing side....

The clasic bi-metal indicater blinks faster as the load decreases. So there is a difference in load. Slower blinking side draws more amps or faster blinking side draws less amps. As posted above :

check bulbs
check connections

Interesting. Which model # bulb will give the faster blink??

And will a 'trailer' flasher give a faster blink as well??
