Default Street Bob Lighting

Hey guys, I'm wanting to make some changes to my stock lighting on my 2017 Street Bob. I'd like to add a rear taillight to the fender and relocate the front turn signal, down somewhere on the forks.

I think the older model Street Bobs came with a rear tail light mounted to the fender and I really like those. I'm assuming to find one and bolt it on would be a simple solution, but I can't find one in town. I'm also hoping there is some sort of light mounting kit to relocate the turn signals in the front?

Is there a good website that offers what I'm looking for?

Thanks for any help/input!

I saw a tail light like you are looking for at the dealer yesterday. There are also lots of aftermarket lights that you can add. Signal relocation kits that move the front lights to the forks are available too. Check out Revzilla or JPCycles. With the streetbob, the wires are ran through the bars, so many folks just snip the existing lights wires and add LED front signals on the forks.

Thanks very much for the input guys. ...and during my search for that style of tail light, I've already read a few comments from guys complaining about how much they hate that light. lol But if any of you have one you'd like to get rid of, please give me a shout!

Not really. They changed the rear fenders on the DBs in 2013. Take a look, you'll see.

Google "Sparto LD Tail Light", the older model Street Bob tail light was kind of a replica of the Sparto.

I'm sure this has been beaten to death, but I can not find anything decent to replace the chrome limp dick sparto light. I've searched threads but they are a few years old. Has anyone seen anything recent that is decent? I'm thinking of just painting it denim black. Any input would be appreciated. TIA
