move license plate below taillight
Is there a way to lower the license plate below the taillight on an 09 Road King Classic without having holes from the license plate holder showing? Any ideas would be great.

don't think so, you could get a "laydown" plate kit-- little bit sleeker
I used a 2010 RK signal bar/plate mount on my EG Classic. worked out great, but I didn't have the holes to contend with

Seems that Softbrake relocation plate doesn't fit 2009-2010 Road Kings. At least fitment table in J&P Cycles web page says so. Don't know the reason. Maybe fender width?
Road King original set would be ideal but expensive. If you remove the fender tip there is a set of holes you can use. If you buy a couple of door stoppers between the fender and license plate sized metal plate you can build relocation kit your self ;-)
When I'm done I will post a picture.

Not sure I understand your question correctly, but all UK tourers have the plate below the light.
If this is what you are after then the European taillight assy should give you what you are looking for?

It's so wrong if you in the UK have that fixed already. In Finland even the dealer was out as a snow man when I asked for relocation. Do you by change know the price of that UK assembly? It should be the whole EU assembly to be fair ;-)

I used the RK light assembly on the rear of my 09 EG Classic,which I think is similar to the UK setup.But I doubt there is room for your plate below the tail light.My plate is 4"or 5"X 7" and yours looks somewhat bigger.
