RE: Lisence plate relocate

I recently did the plate relo. Used a new Kuryakyn kit and added a pair of large silver bullets. Nice and clean except fot the bar, plus no drilling. Have thought about using the bar from a Street Glide (no holes) but also found a pair of lights made to fit the holes when the bar is removed. Can't remember where (!), maybe J&P Cycles or Drag Specialties.
If you find something please post.

RE: Lisence plate relocate

I relocated my plate with Fireman Joes kit.
As with you, this left the mounting bolts from the original plate mounting exposed. I was going to modify or go with the Street Glide bar also until I was in the dealer last week and saw a Road King that they had used the HD relocation kit on. It includes a small chrome cover plate that has "Harley Davidson" in script on it to cover up the holes. The dealer is splitting it out of a kit for me for $19.95. Seemed like the easiest and cheapest way to go.
