My right front turn signal stopped working while I was riding yesterday. The right rear signal still blinks, but fast. So this morning, I pulled out the front bulb thinking it was burned out. Well, it doesn't look burned out. The filament is intact. Any thoughts on what the problem might be?

Sometimes they can look okay but still be defective. Worth trying another bulb before digging any deeper. The fast blinking occurs when one of the lights stops working.

Check the white turn signal connector. It might be hidden in the the right hand switch housing or hanging close by. Sometimes the pins pull out of the plug or the pin fit becomes loose and needs to be slightly crimped. Had it happen to me.
