Default Rear turn signal relocation/Great bike gear

I have been looking at rear turn signal relocation kits. I was wondering if there were any late model street bobs with the great bike gear set up? I am wanting to see how it looks. I have a 2011 street bob.

Default Easy bracket bolts on a '07 FXDL

The Great Bike Gear relocation kit looks OK, but I wanted something with less bulk and sturdier than the Harley kit. I bent galv. steel bars and riveted them to my laydown license plate. The signals are bolted through chrome spacers and I ran both wires through an existing hole in the fender. I disconnected the wires from the plugs in the tail lamp so I could restore everything to stock.

Relocated mine to an LED strip on the fender edge.

I am looking for the same rear signal relocation kit that isn't ugly like the harley kit for a street bob. The 2011 comes stock with a 50's style tail light and fender rail turn signals. I want to mount saddlebags but most pics I have seen show the wrong tail light on the fender.

Default Here's mine!

Don't know if this is what you are looking for but I got mine off of ebay for 20 bucks.

I've got this on my Street Bob, it's good build quality, not legal per say but is super bright and does as good a job as the stock tail and signals.

This what i did to mine, part is from a FLHX and all i had to do was drill 2 holes to mount it, IMO looks clean and moves turn signals out of the way of my saddlebags

All good ideas....

But to my eye, relocating MoCo turn signals from the strut to the tail light area just doesn't look right. I think the size of the OEM housing is too massive when grouped close together and visually, unappealing. Especially if the bags are not installed.

I wish the MoCo or an after market designer would deal with this issue and design some good looking units.

Recall the ugly, bulky, heavy and visually unappealing rear luggage racks for Dynas (excluding the WG) a few years ago? The MoCo rack has been redesigned with smaller tubes and a flowing design; much more appealing to the eye and compliments the lines of the scooter.

This is what needs to be done for Dyna turn signals IMO.

Did you use this a brake light and turn signals? Where did you mount the resistor??
