Hey i am New here and exicted to learn more about electronics..
here is my project, i am tring to make some custom LED rear indicators using 6 LED's.. my bike has a 12v battery so when the key is in its at 12v with lights on and when engine is turning its at 12v - 14.5v
so maximum supply is 12v to 14.5v
my goal is to have an LED squencer rather then just blink so whhen i hit the indicator button power is supplied to the LED's i want them to flash in a sequence... i found a circuit diagram, i am just checking with you guys if it would work.. here is it.

I won't have the switch there (p1) just a direct connection and the pos and neg supply from bike as shown on the left hand side...
since i will have 6 led's does that mean i will have 6 Transistor, 6 capacitors, and 12 resistors on one board?
Also on the Notes section is says:
You can use several LEDs per module. They must be wired in series and supply voltage must be related to their number. (how do i wire them in series correctly? and i am going to be using hyper white LED's 2.2v each)
Using 24V supply (the maximum permitted voltage), about 10 LEDs wired in series can be connected to each module, about 7 at 15V and no more than 5 at 12V. (using 6 LED's would that be a problem?)
The right number of LEDs can vary, as it is depending by their color and brightness required. (color is white and maximum brightness is about 11000 MCD)
please help me out in this, if some one can draw me a new schematic for my situation that be cool if not i can try to edit it my self with some help.
thank you

also i am very new to electronics my career feild is in criminal justice and stuff like that.
