Thanks, The license plate bracket is a Kuryakyn and seems to be a good solid piece.

Since the pic at the start of the thread. I have removed the tail light and put in a LED tailight strip. I think it really cleans up the back of the bike.

When you removed the stock license plate bracket did you have to do something to the turn signal?

No, the Canadian bikes have a plastic plate holder under the tail light, brutal looking. i had the dealer cut it off until the LED strip light came in.

Is that tail light strip an HD part?

Fat Boy doesnt have anything back there other than the turn signals, but that looks like a good visibility upgrade

No it’s a custom dynamics. Yes,it is very bright and when signalling half will flash, pending on which way u are turning.
