Replacing tail light. Fxdb

Well the time has come to get rid of the fugly sausage tail light on my street bob.
So I was looking for some suggestions on ones to look for (I use my phone for the forums so I can't put any pics of my bike up as current), but I have the my plate mounted on the side, and denim paint. Looking for something simple and clean without the spot for a license plate.
Thanks

have you considered just deleting the taillight? the blinkers also act as taillights, so you dont really need to re-locate or put a different one on.

Really? That's an interesting option (if never noticed seeing every time the brakes have been pressed I'm riding it lol).
