Hazard Flashers

If your K bike did not come with 4-way hazard flashers then it is very easy to add them.  All K bike flasher relays and main wiring harnesses can accommodate them.  All you need is the "Hazard Warning" dash switch - part 61311459305.

Some dealer parts people have been known to tell customers that they need a new flasher relay for this but that is not the case.  The reason this occurs is that the flasher relay shows up in two parts diagrams - one for the relay box and another for the hazard warning parts.  However, if you check you'll find that both flasher relays have the same part number - 61311459224.

The connector for the hazard switch can be found under the left side of the fuel tank.  It is a flat black three terminal connector.  The wires to it are brown (ground), yellow/violet and blue/white.  The hazards are activated when the switch grounds the yellow/violet wire.

Some of the early K bike hazard switches had a tiny light in them behind the hazard triangle switch insert that would flash in unison with the hazard lights.  That's what the blue/white wire is/was for.
