Front blinker relocation question
I bought my bike used at the beginning of last summer, and the individual that owned the bike before me relocated the front blinkers to the front forks via clamps. Because of where they are located, I cannot use my quick release windshield on my bike (I'm in MN, so protection from wind on cold days is REAL nice!). The bike has mini aps, and I'm wondering what I need/how I can relocate the blinkers elsewhere to get them off the forks so I can use my windshield. Any thoughts, websites, kits, tutorials, etc would be greatly appreciated. TIA.

are you looking at shields for tube mounted lights? i wonder if they would work with your set up...
mine are mounted long with even more lights- my windshield has cut outs and is a motoco stock part

A couple pics of the Harley version. Your T/S will sit well below a quick disconnect windshield - and stick out like outriggers:
Sometimes they crack, but not always. Keep an eye on 'em:
I no longer use a wind shield and no longer have the Harley mounts. I use mounts that don't stick out as far.

Chad1200 just hooked me up with some from Drag Specialties part number 2020-0347. They mount close to the fork tubes and don't stick out like outriggers. I just got them from Amazon and haven't installed them or I'd post a picture. You can do a search on Chad1200 + forks and see his picture tho.

Here is another alternative....Rizoma adapters. They mount on the bottom of the mirror stems under the levers using aftermarket signals of your choice.
