I just finished up a few winter projects ... lowered, chin spoiler, rear fender rework, new seat, side mounted plate and headlamp trim.

Somebody has to help us out and take a closeup pic of the turn signal relocation kit installed. I order the same sissy-bar as several others here and would love to see what it looks like. Also a ballpark estimate of the time to do it. I searched everywhere on the web and do you think I could find a pic? Hell no.
Pretty please. Thanks in advance.

Dude, where did you get that fender???

edit: I re-read your post and you said you reworked it. Very nice job! I'm building a stretch for mine, but it's been on the back burner since riding season is here. I got a used rear lo fender off of e-bay that I'm using. Anyway, yours caught my attention and again, it looks good bro.

Damnit man! Bike looks sick! I actually really like that windshield on it; what is it? And that fender looks clean. Did you end up configuring the turn signals to work as brake lights? I did it on mine, makes me feel like its more noticeable.

For the quick detach hardware I just ground mine down so I would not have to use the relocation kit for my turn signals. Here is a before and after side by side comparison after grinding. It is not my pic it is from another member on here that posted in the DIY section. Hope it helps.

I had this photo in my photo album shown without the sissy bar and passenger seat. However, I don't plan to take anymore photos until I reach Laughlin tomorrow. Then I'll also have the sissy bar on the bike.

lordoss,
I don't know if your bike is gloss or matte black, but either way don't use the throw over bags as you stated, especially on the matte because it will ruin the paint job.

Since your asking about docking hardware, maybe you didn't mean throw over bags? Anyway the docking kit for the detatchable bags for your year bike is in the parts book. If you don't have one, let me know and I'll look it up for you. Good luck!

Sorry, it made sense in my head.

I'm going to get the tall backrest (52729-08). I just wanted to know which quick detach kit I should use with throw over bags.
