It was cold and boring around here this weekend so I decided to install the HD TS relocation kit for my front signals and move the rear signals in another inch with the HD kit. Also took some time to snap a few pics. The first pic is the stock photo from H-D of my bike to give you a little idea as to what I've done so far

Wow, only had to edit that post like 4 times. Note to self: read faq on embedding pictures next time before posting.

 

I have the kit to do my fronts. Did it take a long time? Was there a lot involved in the project? The bike looks great.

 

Looking good!

I did my rear signals last week, sure wish I had a bike jack it would have been a ton easier...LOL!

 

The fronts were a bit of a pita for me Atomic. Since I have never gotten that involved with my previous bikes I was being careful, especially with my tin removal. You have to remove the seat, tank, learn how to remove the signal wiring from the amplocks without mashing them (a small eyeglass screwwdriver pushes 'em right out) and undo a few fuses and the battery. To be quite honest, the thing that was most time consuming was draining the damn gas tank. Had almost a full tank and it took forever to get it all out. Took a few hours altogether from start to finish. Now that I am familiar with the process it would take me about half the time if I had to do it over again. The rears were cake, took less than an hour.

If you have a service manual (I highly recommend one to anyone looking to keep their bike for awhile and not looking to invest in the stealers retirement fund) and follow the instructions, it's not so bad. Good project to do on a non-riding weekend that will improve the looks of your ride for a relatively cheap kit.

 

Oh, forgot to mention, If you don't own a bike jack, get one. It makes the whole process much easier!

 

When I did mine the instructions said to just move the tank back. You have to be careful to not scratch the chrome on the valve covers by covering them with something. And the connector for the fuel gauge is under the tank so you need to be careful to not disconnect that (I found this one out the hard way). Other then that you can move the tank far enough back by removing the seat and unbolting the tank. Taking the tank off would give you more room to work.

P.S. I have a Super Glide, an F150 and even the same blue bucket. This is freaky.

 

Well, you are correct about the instructions telling you to only move the fuel tank back but I like to have a little room to work. I followed the service manual on tank removal just to make my job a little easier.
The fuel gage connector come undone in about a second and the quick-connect for the fuel tank is what I used to drain the tank out. Just disco'ed the fuel line and put a 2 foot piece of fuel line on it, popped it back in and fed the other end into my gas can.

The fact that you own an SG, a F-150 and a sweet, blue bucket(fomoco baby!) just shows you have good taste!

 

Pardon my poor eyes - is that a 49mm front end? -thanks...
