Going insane!!!!

So at the track the other night someone noticed that when I floored it, my left turn signal would come on. Well by the end of the night it was on and would not turn off; I reset the battery and all.

I have a MSD launch master, power commander, and a LED shift light that I just unhooked to see if that was the issue.. Nope. I even took the entire front nose off of the bike and it still lights up on the gauge cluster. I dont know what it could be! I disconnected any and all entry points into the harness for the electronics and still have the issue. If anyone could help, I would greatly appreciate it.
 
Have you tried pulling the flasher unit and checking to see if that is working? Have you checked the wires the go up to the clutch side switch pod? Start with the basics and work back to the harder steps.
 
All of the wires looked fine that ran up the clutch side. I tapped into the clutch wire for my two step and the tach (I believe) for my shift light but that is the only two wires that have been tampered with. What do you mean by switch pod and flasher unit?
 
It sounds to me like you might have a problem in the clutch side switchbox. The one on the handlebar. Either that or the wires coming from that may have a short somewhere. Start at the clutch and work from there down to the main harness.
 
If you have a friend that has a Busa, try his left bar switch. See if the switch is screwed and has a short. Or start checked things with a multimeter. Some sort of power is crossing somewhere into the signal light circuit.
 
this may be completely wrong, but i figured i'd add my 0.02 if you haven't rectified this issue. the same thing happened to my wife's bimmer the other day. after pulling the LCM to no avail, i pulled the airbag and wheel, removed the stalk, disassembled the stalk, and cleaned it thoroughly with rubbing alcohol and a q-tip. reassembled everything and voila. i believe it was nasty contacts and if the indicator switch intricacies are anything remotely similar, a good cleaning may be all your switch needs....
