Now if only the temperature would drop below 93°, I could go ride. *sigh*

I will happily trade you my 50 degree mornings for your 90 degree days.

I'm for that. I've got lots of warm jackets. They won't let me go nekkid on hot days, though!
And this has been one of them! It was miserable out there as I rode about 130 miles. Still trying to get cooled off!
You can have them!

Just thought I'd update y'all on what the issue was in case someone else faces it in the future, turns out it was a faulty speedo that was shorting the turn signal (the neutral light was indeed the sensor).

Took the shop guys almost 5 hours to track it to the headlight after pulling everything apart, having it work, pushing everything back together, having it not work, lather rinse repeat...

A small thin exposed wire that causes a short is hard to find. It is very time consuming & frustrating to trace. Now that the mystery is solved, you can really enjoy the bike !

Thanks for updating on this issue.
