Niels83,

Can you post a pic of your plate hanger now? I hate the USA version. It's the poorest excuse for anything stylish. Looks like, "Oh $hit! We forgot about the plate. Let's just slap it on over here."

Been contemplating something different. Have side vertical mount in hand, but not liking that either. Hate to drill holes in fender, so looking for other ideas.

I made my side mount out of a Sportster belt guard.

Default Gap filler

So, 24v...what did you use to fill the gap created by the removal of the stock plate bracket? Did you just re-mount the turn sig and now one is closer to the strut than the other? Oh yeah, remind me where you mounted your new one again...axle?

The license plate spacer will not match up with everything correctly. You need to get the RH single light "bracket" and then everything matches the way it should. It's about $20.

I removed the spacers from both sides and just bolted the lights directly to the struts. Plate is mounted to rear peg mount hole.

Hello everybody, I live in Europe as well and as you already know here we have the horrible central license plate holder.

I changed position of my license plate and now I have a wonderful Rebuffini made lateral holder.



Now I also wanto to keep the rear red reflector in place but having removed the plate holder there is no longer mounting frame for this reflector.

I feel this is #13 in the following picture, does anybody have the part number? Do I Need other?



Thanks!

That's exactly what I want for mine when I get it. The stock one is too high for my liking. Do you have to drop the back wheel / remove the axle to fit it? or is the nut on that side?
