Turn signal relocation
I have a 06 FXSTI and want to relocate the turn signals to the fork with the kit from HD. I bought the kit, but have to remove the tank to access the signal wires. I ain't an idiot, but with the service manual I have and attempting tank removal, and half way through I said screw it. It would be much easier to cut/splice the signal wires to complete the job. Here's my question.....is it as nasty of a job as I think it is just to remove the tank? Or.....am I being lazy?

RE: Turn signal relocation
I ran into same thing relocating my signals from handlebars to below passing lamps. \\; From info I got on forum some of guys said you could just loosen the tank and get to connector on right side of tank. \\; It was a pain but I was able to do it and extract pins from old signals and insert new signal wires without splicing.

RE: Turn signal relocation
I did neither, I relocated my turn signals from the mini apes down to the front forks and tied off the wires behind the headlight, I will be changing the apes to drag bars at some point over the winter and \\;when I take off the tank I'll redirect the signal wires at the time.
