Stock indicators working fine, so no faults in wiring or oem relay.

How about stock indicators with LED lamps fitted in them?
I've searched the shed and found 4 (LED lamps), in the magic box.

Don't know if anyone has said this as I can't be asked to go back.
Have you tried just replacing one side to led but disconnect the indicator warning on the dash.
Should get that one side flashing double time hopefully. If so get you resistor wired in to see if it'll slow to normal speed.

on a different bike I used LED bulbs with current limiting built in (no need for resistors) and an electronic flasher unit

Ok butcher650
Separate one indicator wire / plug one end of the resistor (let's say Black), into the bike side of the wire / plug the other end of the resistor (Red) into the the indicator end of the wire you separated. If you want to test the R value set your meter to Ohms and apply a probe to each end of the resistor (BTW your bike takes 21w lamps IIRC so should have 21w resistors (900 have 10w)). If you need 2 more resistors I have a pair of 10w in the shed somewhere). The result is you get brighter indicators but no power saving.
HTH
Edit
Just noticed you have 10w resistors so may not have enough resistance for stock flasher unit.
Just noticed, Haynes says oem turn signal light is 21w but Yamaha says it's 27w ! Might be worth checking the bulb values Butch.

Yep Lee 9er is 10w, Mk1 n Mk2 n Mk2a are 21w

Just been fettlin my mk1 indicators and the stock ones have 21w bulbs in mine. Might be a Yamaha typo saying they're 27w but thought I'd mention it as it might be worth checking.

Mine all are 21w so i would assume a typo as well..

Yep Lee 9er is 10w, Mk1 n Mk2 n Mk2a are 21w
Maybe the 9er wattage is omly a different measure - "average power" ?

Hello all.
I replaced stock turn signal relay with chinese CF-13 adjustable relay on my 900A.
Bought it on aliexpress.
All lamps are LED-based, no problems.
Blinking frequency is adjustable.
CF-14 is the same, with reversed pinout.
