I just relocated my turn signals the other day. I made my own mounts. Easy peasy. I just got a couple three inch braces from the hardware store (the type with only two holes). I drilled out the holes with a 5/16" bit. I then got two 5/16-24 (fine thread) by 1/2" button head bolts. I mounted the stock turn signals to the brackets using the button-head bolts, and then mounted the brackets to the forks. I used the bolt on the forks that usually hold the brake line and throttle cable guide (and its twin on the other side) to hold the brackets. Quick, invisible, and cost less than $5.

The extra cable I gathered, and tucked between the frame and the tank on the right side.
