Trying to troubleshoot a turn signal problem with my 80 kz1000 .
the right front turn signal refuses to flash , it just stays light.
All the other signals work fine.
I checked everything, all the light bulbs, grounds, replace the flasher with a few different ones and still no luck.
Any ideas?

The wayward signal is seeing power all the time. That's not how it should work. Power should only flow when the flasher activates. I think you should check to make sure the wire from the signal is joined to the correct wire on the harness.

I have a B4, but wiring for the signals is a bit different because they are on the bars instead of attached to the headlight shell.
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

Just checking to see if this was resolved.
I have an 83 KZ750 twin and the right turn signal stays on as well. The rear light is on while the front light goes off. The left side works fine. I have swapped the bulbs as well.

Fixed it. Turned out someone cut and spliced the wires wrong in the headlight and ran out the correct color wires.
Some people should not touch wiring.
