Sportster turn signal relocation parts
 
I'm installing mini apes and want to relocate my front turn signals down to the forks. H-D has a part to do this, but it looks like a one-piece bar which I really don't like. Does anyone know where I can get a sperate clamp for each side, in BLACK?

It's not 1 single bar running from left to right, its 2 mounts, 1 for each side. And I believe HD has it in black as well. I swapped mine with their kit earlier this fall. You may have to unplug the harnesses from under the tank to relocate them. I had to as my lamps would not fit between the forks and the frame. FYI.

The picture on the HD website makes it look like a one-piece, but if it's the two piece I'll pick it up from HD. Thanks for the help!

The picture sucks. Click on the installation instructions and you'll see.

I see now; did you have to cut the wires or did you disconnect them from under the tank and re-run them?

JP cycles has a 39mm kit for this. two chrome peices for each side. allen bolts on. dropped lights down and only had to cut cable supports to get more slack.

I disconnected the wires from under the tank (left hand side on my ride) to reroute the wiring, and then plugged them back in. Never ever cut unless you have to. Only a few bolts to have the tank off and out of the way to deal with disconnecting the wiring....

Harley's version look like outriggers:

Sometimes they crack, but not always. Keep an eye on 'em:

I thought these were now available in black, but I can't readily find them. This is the chrome version:

A while back, I took a set of the above and shaved a little off here and there to get the radii to match up nice and powder coated 'em.

I found them in black and ordered them. What did you use to cut them down? I think I'll mount them to see how the look and decide if I want to cut them down. Thanks for the pics, that helps a lot.
