Default Softbrake license plate relocation for Deluxe

Just did the install on this. A bit of a pita trying to get up behind the rear fender and reach the top 2 nuts but other than that went smoothly and a simple 2 wire splice in job to get the led lights on the plate hooked up. Thanks to some other members here for the info on this. Really cleans up the rear end.

I met with Rick at his shop and picked up the tombstone housing (has no top holes for the plate like stock), the plate bracket and the plate frame with led lights. He's got quite a set up and very nice quality products. Picked up the extended softbrake brake lever. Lowers the pedal like the e-z brake but also moves it an inch forward. Hoped to have that today too but can't get the darn clevis pin out on the stock set up. Only thing holding me back.
