Since I've droped my bike and broken my original indicators I've decided to replace them with LED indicators.

Initially I hoped that LED in front with normal bulbs on the rear will do for the orig.relay, which I was not too informed about how it works exactly initially, I'm no electrician. Then I've found out after, that I need to replace the original flasher with one designed for LEDs, which I did, and bought a LF1-S-PIN relay from China, (actually 5 of them since they were so cheap).

This kind off sort out the problem, BUT ONLY WITH the ENGINE OFF.
As soon as I start the engine, the flasher starts blinking faster, maybe even a slightly bit faster than the original. But the  only main difference between the original and LF1-S-PIN relay is when indicating with the engine stopped; original is hyperblinking regardless of engine being on/off,  LF1-S-PIN blinks fine just when the engine is off.

 

I've also tested the  LF1-S-PIN relay with 4 LED indicators (front +rear ) with the same result.

 

Checked battery with multi-meter, which is in normal parameters.
-cold around 12.6 V,

-idle around 14.x Volts ,
- and about the same on revving over 4K.

I assume these are within range

 

Any advice ?

Is this with ignition turned on or off? I ask as the indicators shouldn't work with ignition off. 

You say "I've also tested the  LF1-S-PIN relay with 4 LED indicators (front +rear )" Assume you mean you've tested it with all 4 indicators connected at the same time?

 

Battery looks ok to me.
