Default Turn signal relocation?

Do i need to cut or unplug the wires to install these type of relocation brackets?
i can't see the wire connectors without removing the tank, i'd like to install these without cutting anything,
thanks.

On my 1991, the front signals connect under the eyebrow, outside the headlight nacelle, You may not have to disconnect to move them. Those clamps are pretty standard fare for relocation. I have the old style that use the lower fork bolt to mount, but it's nice having them down low and inconspicuous.

Of course, i guess my bike's pretty old as far as wiring goes.

No cutting/unplugging required.

I have the same one's on my bike and no cutting. I have had a few sets of the HD signal relocation kits and they suck! I love these one's

FYI - A trace back on the source of the pic you posted takes me to This eBay Link which says;
"Fitment: Harley All models with 41mm Fork Tubes"

I believe you'll want 39mm for the Sporty.

See I did not go that far, but the one's I have look just like them, but got them from J&P a few years ago and mine are for 39mm forks.
