A question from my son

[whatastoner]

Yamaha TTR250

BMW R1200GS press both indicator paddles at the same time. My bike was imported from Austria and has a Hazard lights button on the left handle bar instead.

Cheers

Yep, my Busa has a hazard light switch.

Do the red and blue flashing lights from the car behind me count?

[Daffyd]

My F650CS Scarver had them, as does my current 2016 Suzuki Smash 115.

[johcar]

my Tiger has them but they aren't sync'd.....they only flash one side at a time

My Tiger has them, and they are most useful for lanesplitting, in conjunction with high beam and fog lights.

But the damn switch is on the dash instead of the handlebars...

Seems most (or all) BMWs got them.

And no, tell your son it's "park anywhere button".

2017 gsx-r750 YES
2016 ktm rc390 CANT SEE ONE

Had the same argument with my son when he said the ktm dudnt have one and i said of course it does.....

2009 Bandit and 2011 M50 Boulevard both have Hazards on seperatge switches.

Add my GSR600 to the hazard lights brigade. Even used them from time to time.

Interesting! I'll have to see if I have any old photos as I'm pretty sure that my switch layout was different from your photo!

this is just a pic of the web. I waited for the RS to come out.I bought one brand new for about 13000. I know that i had heated grips put on at a later date with the BMW switch, and i know i didnt have foglights,but i am sure there was a hazard light switch there too.There were switch blanks there

Off topic I know. But is the gsr600 any good? Seem reasonably priced when they pop up.

2013 BMW F800r has a hazard switch, i use it to thank peeps for letting me in.

Also has auto canceling indicators which is bizarre !

[madbikeboy]

Like CasperNZ, my GSXR1300 has a hazard switch.

And it's FUCKING annoying. Sorry for shouting.

I'm getting used to using the indicator switch again, it's weird, normally pointing to the other guys on the track is enough. Sometimes a pointed boot will do. But on the street, you've got to use a stupid button in case we shock the idle minded psychotics we share the road with.

But, the hazard is easy to accidentally hit instead of the inda-mackaters.

So, I look like a tool driving down the road, blissfully unaware that cancel actually equals the park anywheres... It is the only bad thing about the bike. Aside from the need of another 175 horsepower and 70 kg's less of weight. Then I'd marry it.

Really enjoying mine. Very nice in traffic and will pootle along nicely on the open road. Bit of a gentleman's bike with the upright riding position and de-tuned engine for torque lower down but I'm an aging gentleman so it suits me down to the ground.
