Thanks PG. Well, arguably things should work.

Is that like deep state, but thicker?

I installed the Motogadget m-blaze pin turn signals on mine, and they did the fast-flash until I installed the Posh relay. The wiring on them is really delicate, so i didn't feel like trial-and-error'ing with soldering in resistors. The relay was ~$100, IIRC, but it's a simple swap.

Thanks for the feedback, 12milesout. Would you let us know if the fronts still function as running lights when they aren't turn signals?

I'm 99% certain that they do, but will check tonight.

I think that's what I have,maybe about the size of a dime? Is the relay a direct plug in? I made small bezels to bolt the lights to the rear grab bars and to bolt them to the stock locations on the headlight bracket.

Yes, Yes, and I did the same.
Peking: the front lights do stay on as running lights.

That's good to know. So even by using a different LED-specific flasher, or resistors in-line, you would lose the running light feature. That makes the Posh units worth the expense.
