I did a search for this question but could'nt find this anywhere. Anyway, if you have a Sporty, Dyna, or Softail, have you done a signal light relocation? I did on mine since a kit came with Q/D windshield. But, the more I look at my bike, I think they may look better back on the bars, to keep the front clean looking. What is your opinion on my bike.My sig pic shows them on the bars, I don't have one showing them on the forks. Thanks.

I think they serve a better purpose on the bars, as they are spread out and there is no doubt what your intentions are. But, I like mine on the forks because I think they clutter up the grips. I also like the symmetry of them when on the forksof my Roadster. With the speedometer / tachometer at the top, the headlight in the middle, then the signals at the bottom, gives it a 2-1-2. Yes, I think to much about stuff like that
I like them on the handlebars, easier to hide the wiring on the bars then on the forks, and keeps the forks with a nice clean look. Also made a few changes to blend them into the handlebars. Used Screamin Eagle Dyna chrome mounts (they tuck the signals up closer to the handlebars), tinted lenses, and painted the reflectors flat black. Before and after photos below.
