Just picked up an fxdls and I'm having a hard time finding a decent rear plate/light setup.
Setting the bike up for two-up with a sissy bar and quick release for additional bags if needed so I'd like to move the plate from lower left to rear center.
I would like to eliminate the stock hollow turnsignal/bolt hardware and just relocate everything back and center. Primarily to get things out of the way but I also plan on riding long distance and my last bike had a habit of breaking any hardware short of grade 8 bolts.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a slim LED setup that is decently visible? I went with the DK custom setup on my sportster (LED under fender) and was pretty happy with that but the integrated turn signals are a bit too close together.
Thanks this is what I was struggling to find, buggers are pricy though!
I think I might have a go at making a custom one first, something that follows the curve of the fender a bit more, but I'll keep this one in mind when I inevitably fail.
Ended up going with that cyclevisions unit. Very pleased with how it tidied things up.
Its much more visible that stock and eliminates my floppy sideplate the previous owner cobbled together (was rubbing on belt guard).
Being honest the install was a pain in the ***, particularly when using the top hand venture sissybar. I had to not only bore all the plate bracket mounts out but drill out the oddly slotted sissbar holes too.
Then sandwiching everthing in the proper order and dropping it on was very awkward. Still well worth it for what I was after.
Bonus - it stops the tire from flinging mud all over my fender.
Thanks for the recommendations!
