Default Rear Turn Signal Problem

This just started yesterday while out riding. I had my turn signal on and noticed the dummy light flashing pretty fast, leading me to believe the bulb burnt out. The running brake light worked but the blinker and brake light portion did not. So I was just thinking that part of the bulb burnt out but today it worked some of the time but was very on and off. My question is would a new bulb do the trick and what that part number is? Or do I have a bigger problem. Oh and its a 2012 48. Thanks in advance for any advice.

If it's intermittent, it might be a frayed wire somewhere. Just trace it back and inspect the wiring. Maybe the bulb is loose in there...?
