Related question. Mine cancels real easy when turning right (barely have to move the handle bars) and not that easy turning left (takes a significant turn). Any adjustment to be done somewhere?

turn signal cancelling is by distance traveled, not direction of the turn.

No Adjustment.. The cancel is a timed function, not a physical one.. No direction sensors.. I suspect you havea broken wire somewhere.. Probably down towards the headstock, if the harness is still held in place by a cable tie, remove it and wiggle the harness while the bike is stationary..
There is a solenoid in the left handlebar control that trips and returns the switch to the center..

That solenoid is timed for 4 seconds plus 100 yards (approx)
