I agree--I'm slowly coming back from black out.--For TS relocation I originally went with the left bar mount brackets to the trees. Keeps the sigs in real tight. The fat Bob trees I adapted to the bike won't allow that type of mount as the pinch bolts are rotated inboard. Currently running spot light set up.

Sucks about the accident, I assume you were not hurt too bad.

Otherwise, looks like it was a blessing in disguise. Yammy to HD conversion. Good luck with this one.

Also, the majority of bikes on the road are not blacked out. It only seems that way because of these forums. Most bikes on the road or at shows are still of the bling-bling shiny chrome and paint variety.

very true. the 200 or so of us on the forums who have modded their bike to a certain style are usually pretty unique in their own areas.

the cali-style of dyna has spread east but not by much

Don't forget to relocate the reflectors into the garbage.

I've spent so much money on parts(in the mail) I'd really like to keep the relocate ~$50.00 or so.

Thanks!
I went with the kit from Harley. Part # 68564-06 $29.95. Some people don't like them because they stick out so far. I went with them precisely because they do stick out so far. And I love the chrome. If you don't like that look, though, there are others out there. Woulda been easier to have changed them when you did your bars....two less wires to pull through those sharp corners. No big deal though. But that's the very next thing I'd do to it if it were mine. And then I'd lift that tank. Another cheap mod that makes a big difference.

These can-bus models only run wires a few inches from the switchgear/can-bus module to the signals on the bars. They don't run all the way back through the bars anymore. Just need to snip and seal them, and tuck the ends of the wires back into the switch gear. There are two waiting connectors under the tank to run your relocated signal wires to. Just need to buy new connectors. The spare connectors under the tank also can run an auxiliary light as well as the turn signals.
