You could always bypass the 7 pin with a 2 pin flasher.

Im not sure that would be possible, assuming the pictures posted display the correct layout.

Yeah I don't think the 2 pin would work, unless you jumped the pin-out for all the safety switches that run through the flasher.
My first flasher relay was a cheap $10 unit from Ebay, it was completely blank on the top - no information what so ever. The second unit was also from ebay, cost $25 and says it's a FE249JR Denso Japan unit (looks exactly like the stock unit,) which leads me to believe they just opened it up and changed the internals for the flasher pins but had an accident or loosened up the other bits and that caused the problem.
I think I might open this one up and take a look, they offered a refund and said I can keep the defective relay.

If you separate the relay, post some pictures. Maybe you could modify it, and wire in a separate relay for the kick stand switch.
All things man made can fail. Id say try another Denso unit.

That's the plan, I think I'll just order another one from the same seller if I can't find anything else. I tried to bust it open but I lack the tools I need right now - so I might break it just to look at it.

That's the greatest thing I've heard all day! "I might break it just to look at it" Hell yeah!

Are you using the same led flasher 3 times? Or have you tried other brands? I'd much rather use a flasher than have to use resistors on every turn signal. What brand flasher have you tried? Same brand twice and different one the third time, so far the third one is holding up but it's only been a month. What's happening with mine is the little resistors and diodes inside are breaking apart. The connections going to the little circuit board are aluminum so they just crack, I soldered them but they cracked again which tells me they aren't going to stay together. The original one is filled with some kind of hard gel, the aftermarket one isn't, I'm positive that's why they are breaking but no way I'm going to figure out what the factory filled the inside of their relay with. |

Probably a clear epoxy to help everything resist vibration.
All you need is a substance that is clear and is an insulator.

Non conductive epoxy is sold at most hobby stores for RC use. That stuff should work fine.

How is the 3rd led flasher doing for you?
Can you post a link to it please?

sounds good, I have a LED flasher coming from superbrightled.com. I was planning to de-pin the flasher pins in the harness, then make a plug and play solution to solve the rapid flasher.
