I changed from Dr Glow Job lightening wires to these..

Harley Spark Plug wires,Chopper,bobber,cafe,v twin,BSA,Triumph,motorcycle,Honda | eBay

Bike runs even stronger however the directional light indicators were intermittent after about 20 mins of driving then one came on solid and the directionals did not work....hurried home and shut it off and when I turned the key on, directionals were fine.

Any idea why the directional lights are screwed up and then okay after?

Bike does not have a tach.

Is is the supression or lack of in the new wires from Dreamweaver?

Any help appreciated.

10-12mm wires are popular and look awesome. Unless you have bad plug wire(s) dont expect a performance increase, regardless of claims made by the seller.
Im running 12mm Twisted wires without issue, but some owners have had problems like you describe.

I'm runing Taylor wires and have been for several years, if you do a search there's lots of threads with different wires that work on our beasts... :D

"Magnecor's KV85 Competition (8.5mm) and R-100 Racing (10mm) Ignition Cables feature Magnecor's exclusive 2.5mm high capacity Metallic Inductance EMI Suppressed conductor consisting of stainless steel wire precisely wound at 200 turns per inch over a ferromagnetic core. The insulating jacket is made entirely of Magnecor's exclusive TC-1500-HS high strength aerospace grade silicone rubber and its single layer construction will prolong the jacket's insulating ability by conducting extreme heat away from hot-spots that occur near over-the-limit heat sources. The KV85 8.5mm jacket has a service heat resistance of 600 degrees F (320 degrees C) and up to 1 000 degrees F (540 degrees C) for short burst 3 minutes. The R-100 10mm jacket has a service heat resistance of 700 degrees F (380 degrees C) and up to 1 200 degrees F (650 degrees C) for short burst 3 minutes. Even if limits are exceeded the silicone rubber will retain its insulating ability until wires are removed from engine. MagnecorRace Wires are primarily designed and constructed to be used in applications where it is essential to prevent the possibility of ignition wires compromising engine performance. Modern race engines modified street engines and stock street engines which rely on electronic devices to control the function of either or both the ignition and fuel systems are prone to interference from all other spiral conductor ignition wires sold through performance parts outlets none of which can provide proper suppression for EMI particularly if a high-output ignition system is used. We always recommend use of our Race Wires for any stock or modified late model street engine that is electronically managed however most other modified or street engines can also use our Race Wires to improve ignition performance."
