So i pulled the front apart to upgrade to progressive springs (replaced the rears also) now i'm hooking everything back up and of'course things start to give on me.At first the headlight wasn't coming on..hit the forum found that the switch was out of alignment, so bad connection fixed. Then right blinker was working left would just buzz at me..forum again then autozone for a new blinker relay (which also became a return trip to upgrade to a 30amp prong because i blew the fuse strip).

So i fixed the fuse and the relay and then right side works like a champ strong blink but the left side causes the blinker fuse on the tree to blow out but before it actually gives cause the front left side lamp to turn off and make the brake light and headlight flash instead. I pulled the headlight off double check that i matched all wires back together, tried again same outcome. So i tried reversing the front left blinker colors so now i have orange/stripe with orange and orange w/ orange strip. This fixed the issue and now everything is working...

So why is this happening and is this something safe to ride around with?

I stayed with a two prong relay (dot 552) and have a 30amp three prong holder w/ 30amp fuse wired to the original terminals for the strip fuse.

Thanks for any help with this.
