Turn signal ideas
I recently put the Leather Pros retro series sadddlebags on my dyna. So I was hoping to get some reviews on the alloy art strut turn signals and the custom dynamics license plate signals. Thanks

Full fender? Bobbed fender? I did Alloy Art strut turn signals on mine with a Custom Dynamics integrated tail light. Really happy with both. There's lower profile and much cheaper options available for the tail light. The strut lights are well made and easy to disassemble to paint or powder coat. I have the 2 wire strut lights that are just for turn signals but they also make a 3 wire for Brake/Run/Turn.

Got them raw and painted them black with appliance epoxy. They're spaced over the bare fender struts with some fender washers but will go over strut covers if you have them.

I have the square tail light with integrated turn signals. It gives the rear end much cleaner look to it. Dont like the allow art stuff, not a clean design if you ask me. Then again, I run the full fender. I dont like stuff that is hanging out and dont follow the lines of the bike. The hanging out parts can easily hook on stuff like your leg... I had a side mounted plate before, and I kept hitting the plate or the passenger. They dont know the bike like the owner.

You could always do something like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Saddlemen-T...item3f7c41aa83, mounted to the back of the license plate, like I did on my old bike. On the new bike, I used something like these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2PCS-Motorc...item2cb1e21579, but in black, which were a bit cheaper, mounted to the back of the license plate. My signals stick out a little further than I would like, but buying the shorter stalks are about $15-30 for the pair, and I don't want to change them THAT badly. I'd rather spend my money on something else for the bike, like changing them completely to black instead of chrome. Either way, though, will tuck the turn signals out of the way, and clean up the back end a bit.
