Turn signals (flashers, blinkers, indicators, winkers) -- all 1200s have them. The Hazards (4-way warning flashers) are part of the turn signal circuit, although not equipped in some countries. Optional was the Passing Lamp -- a turn signal switch with built-in passing button at the end of the stalk, which flashes the high beams.

An "electronic" flasher may be used to accomodate non-stock bulbs, but requires extra wiring.

By contrast, the original thermal flasher types only work with a specific number and wattage of bulbs.
