Confused by my indicators.
mike the bike:
Your right hand switchgear is for the American market where the headlamp is on permanently as long as the bike is switched on.
To test the buzzer, connect it directly across the battery. It comes on when the flashers are flashing but a lot of riders disconnected them as they attracted too much attention when stationary.
hairygit:
I seem to remember Bryan J mentioned a notice from Honda about disconnecting them on U.K. bikes for some safety reason.
Tomb:
Years ago I was told that indicator buzzers stopped being used as they sounded the same (or similar) as the buzzers at pelican crossings and blind people may mistakenly walk out into moving traffic.

I think the position does exist on the switch but the wording may be a bit confusing.
This is the wording from the 400 handbook - it doesn't have the buzzer but I'm pretty sure the switch works the same way.

All good info. Thank you. I will have a look and see if it's been disconnected. To be honest, I'm not sure I want one working for the reasons described above, but I was just curious about the matter having found it.
Chris400F. Thanks for that. The drawing does appear very similar so might well be what they meant.
Thank you all.
