You may have to take the switch housing off and take a look inside to make sure that all the connections are still good or that the actual switches aren't broken.

It could be a problem with the indicator relay being broken.

Off the top of my head those are the two places I'd look if the bulb and fuses are OK.

If you take off the seat, and stand on the right hand side of the bike you can see the black plastic panel which joins the front fairing to the rear fairing. This is held on by one 10mm bolt, use a socket or phillips screwdriver to undo this. You need to pull this plastic piece quite hard at the rear near the pillion grab handles, and again quite hard at the bottom of the black plastic near the footpeg. The black plastic piece will then slide away. If I remember correctly, the indicator relay is the one closest the front of the bike.

Good luck!

I had a similar problem and my dealer stripped and cleaned all the switches while on service. They can can full of dirt especially if riding in winter.
