    Today I went went out and finally got my bike started. Checking lights, right signal would come on but not flash and left wouldn't come on at all. Bulbs are good and wiring looks fine. Any help would be appreciated

    Check your battery voltage, then check the signal relay (it is under the tank). The cover can be popped off and the contacts cleaned. Also check that you have 27 watt bulbs installed.

    Which model? Do what k-moe said and wiggling wire connections may show something. Are the ground connections correct and good?

    you may have a loose wire inside the directional switch for the left side, after cleaning the relays you may want to check there if the left side does not work. there is a thread about it

    My bike was in the same condition, front right side came on, no flash, rear right would not come on...... Left front and rear would not come on at all.. Printed out electrical diagram from this forum and traced out wiring.... Come to find out, PO had one wire not connected, left rear, and right rear bulb looked good but if you really looked at it, the filament was broke, replaced the right rear bulb, cleaned all connections and used dielectric grease... I would definitely do what was already posted and then go on.
