Default Relocated front Signals
Was breaking down my street bob tonight getting ready to put on my 18" apes (and cables), as well as new pipes when they show up, and decided to make a couple brackets and relocate the front signals to under the fwd controls, I think it went pretty well. Will post up pictures of the new bars and pipes when I get them on

Definitely a mod I'm going to be doing. Just putting together a list of things that need to be done on the front end all at once. Nicely done.

It will be interesting to see how they are in the day, it was either relocated them or take them off entirely, this I thought was more viewable than nothing lol.

Details? Did you make you own mounts? Was the stock wiring long enough? Easy/PITA? If you had not been doing bars at the same time how much work would it have been? I am in the same boat I am either going to get ris of the front sigs all together or do something like you have. But I am not going to change bars just did that, should have thought of this then LOL.

The bike didn't have stock signals on when I bought it, they were mounted on the trees, and I didn't like the look. It was a super easy mod. Took a piece of 1/8 inch stainless trimmed up a piece drilled two holes in it, mounted through one of the fwd control bolts, and then just mounted up the signal through the other hole, wires for the signals were plenty long, they were just zip tied bunched up at the neck, still need to zip tie them to the frame to hide them, but yes very simple mod.
