Default Turn signals

I've been pushing for the light bar up front but the wife doesn't like them and she loves the bike almost as much as I do and I'd like to keep her happy with it as I customize it. I hate the stock turn signals though, front and rear. I've got a 2-up fatboy seat now just like the solo in my pic and I just picked up a detachable backrest for her. Just curious what signals you guys have and if you have pics and info on where you got them. Looking for both front and rear pics and info.
On the rear, I think I've seen brake/turn signal combos and i'm kind of interested in that. Maybe an aftermarket brake like that pulses with directional signals on each side or something....

I use this small T/S light bar from Pro-One on the front.You can see it under the headlight.

I see that but honestly, I get nervous with turn signals that close together. I guess I'd like to keep them on the handlebars/rear fender but have them look a lot slicker than the stock lights.

I hear you.You can always go with the standard fork relocation method.Spreads them out a little further and uses the stock turn signals.Easy enough to do too.

I hate the stock signals too but couldn't find a good alternative that I liked.So I just relocated the front ones to my forks. It was really easy to do and looks 100% better than the stock location of hanging on the bars.

I moved my tailights down a little lower on the fender. I think it looks a little better, plus sets it apart from the crowd.

Just did both of mine. Moved fronts down as several others have done; bought a lay-down kit from Great Bikes Gear that allows you to mount the rear on the tag. Sorry for the pic quality, it's an old digital.

Heres the link for the rear tag/light combo.
