Front turn signal relocation HD vs. Kuryakyn
Front turn signal relocation HD vs. Kuryakyn
First off, my ride is a 2005 FXDWGI.
I bought the OEM front turn signal relocation brackets from HD for $60.

After about a month, one bracket snapped and it wasn't due to any king of impact. It snapped because it couldn't handle the vibration.
I bought a 2nd set of brackets from HD, yes, another $60.
I replaced the broken bracket, leaving me with a spare set of brackets.
Well guess what...after about 2 weeks, the other bracket snapped and left my turn signal dangling in the breeze...ugh.
I got tired of playing around with HD OEM crap, I should know better, and ordered a set of Kuryakyn's from Amazon for $47.
Just by looking at them, the way they are made, these will not break very easily. Much better quality. They have been on for over 2 months now ith no issues. Look decent too.
Figured I'd share this.

I am never a fan of add-on clamps.

I'm always leery of HD parts that feel like cheap plastic feel with a premium price. Arlen ness makes a pretty good relocation kit.
