Default what options do I have for turn signals

I hate the big turn signal bar on the back of my ultra classic. I changed my turn signals to the harley bullet signals and got rid of the lollipops. But is there something I can get to replace the bar to look nicer?

nicer...the lollipops are part of the classic Harley look, similar to 2 spots and a headlight up front or the batwing fairing...instantly signifies Harley-Davidson Big Twin FLH

Makes a visual cue that you are not rolling up on an import wanna-look-like.

but we each have our own eye and what appeals to it.

there are kits to sink lights into the saddlebags or a filler strip between bags and fender...or just a streetglide signal bar.

options may vary with your model year ( I don;t know what FLHTCU you have)

suggest you spend some time looking in catalogs and pics to see what best appeals to your eye and will look best with other changes you have in mind

factor in whether your tour pak is on or off.

I swapped over to a roadking signal bar...a little narrower, plate mounts under. solid red lens, mounts with same to bolts- requires a splice to marry the plate led into the fender tip light.
since this pic I added the run/turn/brake module so my lenses are now red




easy, this is a 2009 model with a 2010 RK bar...cost about $70 used

When I had my RK, I purchased a Kuryakyn rear turn signal bar. It ran about $150, but it cleaned up the rear end nicely. That may be an option for you...good luck on your search.

I'm probably wrong and I'm not home to look at it. I thought there was a bit of an issue with using the street glide bar because of the way the tour pack mounted. I do like that much better

Here's mine. I don't like the lollipop light bar either.

I like that much better. Thank you for the pic. I wish I would have gotten that before I bought the bullets for the existing bar. Oh well only money I guess
