Stew,

If you take a look at the flasher you will see the wires that connect to it.

I wish the tank wasn't such pain to take off, I would take a pic.

I am tapping in to the power sent to the flasher when the turn signal switch is thrown either way.

If you find the brown wire and the blue wire at the flasher it is easy to attach your LED to them to verify that it will work correctly.

Cool. Thanks again KennyG. So it sounds like I need to be connecting to the brown and blue wires that give he blinker system power when either blinker is thrown.

I think with your description I can fish around in there with my meter and locate the feeds and make sure they work correctly before slicing up any wires.

Please don't take your tank off...if you hate it as much as I do I wouldn't either! Angry

Ok, after seeing Kenny G's post I did a short video explaining how you can hook up that piezo blinker to your flasher relay, the one I use in the video is actually from Radio Shack, it is a 6-12V DC 102db alarm, the pins I used were from a kit for a computer connector with 9 pins.
I ordered a single tone piezo for the wife's, and i'll post a video of it when it comes in.

Here is the single tone one I ordered:

And here is the video I just made:

On my old VTX I did the same thing, and to fasten the piezo to the bike I just used some Velcro squares.
I eventually had to tape some foam over the speaker of the piezo! at stop lights it was loud!
I am hoping the 95db one I ordered for the wife's bike is quiet enough to not make car drivers mad, but loud enough for her to hear as she accelerates after a turn. Grin

Ok, got my reply back on the STS blinker beta.... here is the email I received, so its going to be a couple months before I get to report on it

Hi,
thank you for your support and participation in STS Early user program. We are extremely excited to start shipping our products and receive your feedback.

At the moment we are testing and certification STS device for homologation and preparing installation manuals for every motorcycle.

We are planning to send you a detailed installation manual in beginning of June. At that moment we expect you to go through installation manual and contact us if you will have any question or remarks. If you will feel you are not capable of installing STS device on your own you can contact your local mechanic or our support team. You also have full right to leave early user program and we will fully refund your money.

We plan to start shipping STS devices in second half of June, there could be a chance that some models will be delayed but in that case we will let you know as soon as possible and you will decide whether you still want delayed device.

After you receive and install our device we would really appreciate if you could do a test ride and give us feedback. This could be in writting or as a video. In case of any problems we will get in contact with you and resolve it. Again, at any moment you will have a chance to return the device and we will fully return your money.

Thank you again for your support and we will keep you posted about our update.

Re: Smart Turn system Reply #25 - 04/22/16 at 15:02:10 Some electronic stuff, some wires to the handlebars, and a fifty thousand volt blast after about thirty seconds,, Annoying, but it would work. Might be kinda hard on the khakis, eeh, Jake?

.
There is a thread in the "Technical Documents/Reference" section
titled "Blinker Buddy" started 9/29/10 that discusses piezoelectric
buzzers for turn signals.

Here's the link:

http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1285772416/14

See Reply #14 in the thread for a picture of my buzzer.

I've used it on my S40 for the last four years.

It's not too loud to be obnoxious but it does remind me to cancel
my turn signal.
The wiring is dead simple. Just pull the plug off of the flasher,
slip the buzzer wires into the plug, put the plug back on the flasher,
then tape or zip tie the buzzer to the flasher.
I like it better than a visual indicator that may be too dim in sunlight
or too bright at night.
More importantly, it doesn't distract my eyes from the road.

So it looks like all I need to do it tap into the brown and blue wire on the "black box" and that will illuminate the LED? I have to head to Church and then out of town for the day but plan to test this with the meter and an LED tonight when I get home.

LOL! Ok third try.... got the little 95dB piezo in and put it on the wife's bike, she LOVES it!

I do need to work on my video skills though

For JoG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nS8RPngVjrM

Guess it's for everyone.... every time I try to link the video, it keeps putting the same one up I already posted, even though I cut and paste the CORRECT link.
