Relocating Road king license plate
Hi All
I did a search but didn't find what I needed. I just picked up a 09 RKC and I would like to relocate the license under the tail light. Has anyone developed a bracket that doesn't require drilling?
Thanks for any help.

They are re-doing their web site, but call the folks at http://www.softbrake.com
When I had a Road King I ditched the hideous lollipop turn signals and got the touring light bar from HD and used a Softbrake Relo bracket with a Radiantz LED plate

That reminds me, for those who have move the license, how did you cover the bolt holes of the stock location?

Two words: Belt Buckle. I just took a grinder and ground the parts off the back and used 3M double stick tape to adhere. The great thing about that buckle (other than I liked it a lot) is that the curve of the buckle was perfect for the fender.
FTW!!
Sad thing is they dont make that buckle any more.

Whoops, my mistake. I didnt realize the tag location was different between the RK and RKC.
Thanks Keithhu, I will check into it. I also have been considering the 09 SG tail light.
The belt buckle is a great idea.
Just what I was looking for, thanks guys.

uses same 2 bolts, you can reach an arm up in there- takes 5 minutes to swap.
if you want plate light and fender tip light ( as above) requires a wire splice.
