'13 Street Bob "License Plate Relocation Kit"
Pulled the trigger yesterday on a '13 FXDB using HD's bike builder tool. In addition to adding a 2-up seat, I want to add a back rest and rear rack. Unfortunately, HD in its wisdom doesn't offer rigid sideplates in black gloss - only chrome so I have to order the detachable sideplates. To do so however, requires the "License Plate Relocation Kit". Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr...... :-(
My question: Has anyone else done this mod to their '13 Bob and if so, where does the license plate get relocated to? Is there a black gloss alternative to the detachable sideplates that I'm overlooking?
thanks!

Subscribed. I'm watching this because I will eventually move the license plate. For some reason HD doesn't have a picture in the catalog.
I understand why they went with the side mount. The 2013 rear fender looks great. Problem is, you can't put bags on without relocating the license plate. Even the Moco single side bag interferes. I assume the plate moves back to the fender somehow.

The plate reloc for the 13's puts it on the rear fender I was told by the dealer.
Once he told me that I knew that would not be the route for me, and I didn't like the stock plate mount location either. So I just moved it myself.

about midway down the page (post 1897 & 1898) is how I moved my plate bracket, I need to take a better picture of how it looks in the end.

I have to have a rack and backrest. Putting the license plate back on the fender is a deal breaker. Won't happen.
There are 2 different relocation kits from my understanding since I am doing the same thing you are with the street bob. The dealership told me you can mount the License plate under the rear fender or above it. I'm going with the one under the fender.
