Default Removed front directionals!!!

Does anyone know if screw caps are sold for the holes left in the upper forks where the directionals were mounted?? I think the thread on the hole is 5/16?

I don't know of any particular caps that will fill the hole, but you could just go on ebay and find a couple of 5/16 chrome socket head cap screws to thread in there and cap it off.

Just an idea.

The turn signals were originally on the bars. Somebody put them on the trees. There should be a Phillips headscrew in those holes.
