Default Front turnsignal relocation on 08 Fat Bob

I am thinking about relocating my front signals to my forks. What kit is being used for this, what do you guys think is the best way to go with this project?

Use what is already there to relocate...

You'll need a duplicate left side bracket...and you'll need to drill out the hole to 3/8" to accept the pinch bolts.

I used the HD relocation kit and now wish I had done this.

Thanks What I understand they won't just sell you that bracket. What I did was buy the chrome kit for $20. I have no patience waiting for someone to have one available.

Part number for left side bracket: 67829-88. Give it a shot, the dealer may surprise you (and me).

I don't think using the existing hardware works on a Fat Bob. The pinch bolts on the Fat Bob lower tree are angled back more than 90*. Correct me if I'm wrong. I thought about doing it, but the angle threw me.

I used the Kuryakan kit. Part number 2287 just had to pick up some different bolts for the turn signals.

You wouldn't happen to have the part number or any other information on this, would you?
