Much to my surprise, I couldn't find anything written up about how to add hazard/emergency flashers to our bikes (maybe I didn't look hard enough or use the right search terms). Regardless, here's instructions for those that might want add them:
My 93 model has them fitted standard from the factory, though they only work with the key on. Don't US spec bikes of the same vintage have them fitted.

Not a real good photo, but it's the sliding switch beside the high/low beam switch.

I don't think any of the US FJ's had them (nor many US bikes for that matter). However on some of the FJ's like mine, you can see a raised spot molded into the left housing where that switch would be installed.
My 84 Ninja Gpz900 has them - stock --- I often wonder why they were not on the FJ's ---

Thanks for that, I am going to give it a try.

My '81 Kaw GPz1100 has them too. Go figure.
It also has dual element bulbs in its turn signal stalks, that double as running lights. What was Yamaha thinking when they omitted these needed features? :scratch_one-s_head:

If one possesses a rudimentary understanding of electrical circuitry and theory, here's some more options for adding the 4-way hazard feature.
