rear turn signal relocation
Just bought a 2012 Super Glide and want to put soft bags on it. I ordered a set of saddlebag supports from J&P and went to put them on.....long story short .....not cutting wires on a new bike and using some funky looking turn signal mounts. So think I'll go with Harley's relocation kit. Any input?

I use the rear sig Bar that bolts on behind the license plate mount. Looks nice and moves the sigs well out of the way from any type of bag you want to use.
The strut extender version doesnt look nice to me.
Part number for the Bar and layback plate kit: 60215-06

You can also buy the Bar separately.

I used Hd's turn signal relocation kit and still had to cut one of the wires even after disconnecting the pins from the amp connector. The hole thru my relocation kit was to small to allow a pin thru when one wire was already inside. I soldered the connection and used shrink tubing... good as new.

yep, thats a bit of a pain. My Bar came with some inline crimp connectors for exactly that reason. I snipped the wires inside the taillight housing, feed through and re crimp, not forgetting your heatshrink before crimping....DOH!

DO disconnect your battery before you start, and double check everything before you reconnect.
If your +ve wire gets grounded or you get things **** about, you will pop your instrument fuse, which oddly stops you being able to start the bike and will have you chasing in circles for a good while.
Dont ask me how I know
