Plate relocation under fender
Wnated to know if you guys n gals like the look of this setup? This is just a mock up for now. Does anybody know of a company that makes a mount for here, or am I on my own as far as fabbing? my mock up consists of my old original sportster mount. The only problem I forsee is parking and hitting a curb, but will act as a mudflab. Any thoughts or comments are appreciated.

I like it, the only issue you may come across is there is no light to shine on the tag. Some LEO's get funny with that. What about serious dips in the road? May bottom out. Hard to tell, guess I get a little paranoid with stuff like that.

I would end up mounting lights under fender pointed at plate or using the lighted bolts Ive seen for sale. They would be wired to tail light.

I think it would be better with the rubber bumper removed. Maybe you can get the fender tip light to light up the plate that way.

Yank off the big old knarly bumper, buy the street glide bracket to replace the bag brace and get it mounted up higher, hell if you flip that bracket around it might reach up to the brace mount on the fender.
Your bumper will be useless anyway with the plate there, plus they are nasty looking, I took off the front and rear on my UC.
