I bought a Memphis Shade Fats removable windshild for my Night Train for long trips. My bike is in storage at the Harley shop. I bought the hardware that is listed for softail models, which includes the FXSTB. Im just not sure if the hardware will clear the signal brackets on the upper forks. Has anyone else bought a Memphis shade windshild for ther Night Train and had any clerance problems? Can I move the signal brackets to just below the tripple tree if I have to?
Looking at your sig pic I would have to guess that you relocated the signals with the mounts that clamp around the fork leg. If so, you should have noproblems relocating the clamp to the underside of the tripple tree, if you have to.
You can get a kit from Harley that moves them to the lower triple tree, I have that kit on mine, but it looks funny.
So I'd put them below it, which is where mine are going this spring
you won't need a kit just take them off and remount them under the trips just be sur you cover
your fender and the chrome around there incase a tool slips or falls
I really like the look of the signal lights mounted down below like that.
I was going to move mysignal lights there but decided to mount a set of driving lights there instead.
Thanks for all the information guys. My windshild came in and I didnt have to move anything. I cant wait till the snow clears sometime in June so I can test it.
