Any of the electronics geeks able to identify this cap?

Its about time you bought a new bike anyway ;D

I was thinking earlier, before I checked it over, I should just sell it, as I can't really use it at the moment anyway...
...but I reckon if I did, I'd never ride another bike again.

Apparently a 1000uF 16v will work, but the flash is a bit quick......increasing the value is suppose to prolong the flash :y

Seems odd. That electrolytic capacitor looks big enough to carry at least uF and V markings :-\
the markings are probably on the other side.........

Nothing on other side
(except -ve marking, just visible)

Dunno what the exact value is, but you can find the same cap in turn signal relays on most Kawasaki's

Looks like a replacement relay is only a fiver, delivered, from ebay. Probably not worth messing around trying to find a suitable one.

If its a Indicator Relay, then guessing 16 or 20 volt rating, so any Electrolytic roughly the same size with a similar rating should work.
Or if you know the Relay switch over voltage, you could work out the charge / discharge time from each flash and from the resistor value to give the Farads.
Or just buy one for a Fiver. ;) but guessing youve probably got a cap laying somewhere on a board.

Physical size of the can means jack, it's the actual values of the cap that matter as that is directly responsible for the timing of the flash rate (currently between 60 and 120 flashes per minute as far as UK law states).

A 1000m drum of Pyro given a 3 second dose of a 1KV insulation test achieves the same result when some poor fool grabs hold of the end ;D ;D
