	I am concerned with the operation of the turn signals on this motorcycle. when you turn on the signal , sometimes it flashes 2 times and then shuts off , sometimes it is 4 times , and sometimes it flashes about 20 times and then shuts off. i have no way of knowing how long they will flash . a few weeks ago i was almost i an accident because the signal turned off long before i got to my turn. i think these turn signals are dangerous , but my victory dealer says they are controlled by computer logic? *tr
