Looking to relocate my license plate and haven't been able to find any decent options. Apparently DK Customs has some options but I'm still on the fence. And I haven't seen anyone on here with a relocation kit. Anyone have any ideas?

Gunzdum1992, I'm very interested in the brake caliper adapters you have on your Bob. Those are unlike any I've seen before. Did you make them or buy them??? Looks badass!!

You could shift into 6th gear for starts

6th is just overdrive..by the time i reach 5th m almost at the top speed the bike could do which is like 170 and dats after a stretch...usually i cruise at 120-140 kph at 4000 rpm or less 9n 6th gear

New member here-Bought my 2009 Fat Bob about a month ago. I bought the tri bar led tail light right away and had the dealer install, Then after I saw the cost of the new part and install charge I went on a craigslist/ebay/fb market rampage for deals on used parts. Swapped headlight to a Fat Boy (60$), added saddle bags(150$). Not pictured but last week I got a heritage windshield (60$+ quick detach hardware $80) and a sissy bar (50$). Thanks to HDForums-I've been able to get good ideas on what will or wont fit on the bike, how to install or fab the parts as needed, what the bike could look like with the addition, and what a good deal for used parts was. Thanks for all your help!

DK customs license plate relocation kit
Removed the stock license plate holder. Didn't like the look of the stock license plate holder which seemed to double as a mud flap. Bought the DK Customs relocation kit and mounted it on the lower left shock bolt. I think it turned out good.
