Hi,after fitting new clutch cable,went for a test ride.
Offside flashers ok,but near side just make a buzzing sound.
Is it likely that I have disturbed a wire with tank and seat off.
Cheers

Yes, it sounds like a wire-off. Something that affects both LHS lamps.

Relay buzzing is it not throwing over, pull its connectors off and refit them. Two places of interest - trace back from the relay to the lamps where front and rear separate, other is in the casquette from the indicator switch. If you don't find a disconnection, pull the connectors apart and push them back together to clean them. Could be a relay fail but more likely a wire connector disturbed doing the cable.

Jefrs.found a wire trapped under tank,both n/s and 0/s flashers working now,but at different speeds.
Suggestions. Please as to reasons
Cheers

Check the earths for both sides. It probably has a slightly dirty connection giving a greater resistance. Make sure there's no damaged wires. If they are flashing less than 2 flashes per second I would just leave it. They will still pass an mot flashing at different speeds
