It's all good! I'll go out right now and do a quick mock up without the light because I haven't got into the back bone yet to pull the wiring out. I'll post pics here in about a half hour (hopefully)

Here's from the front, that 1/8 inch gap I mention. I'll probably end up grinding them down a little, you'll see in the next pic.

Sorry for this crappier pic. I don't have enough light for the cell. The reason it may not work with an 07 up is because if you look close in the pic below by where the trees starts the mold for the tubes it doesn't it sit flush. I'll just grind it all down so it fits flush and closer to the forks. I'm just shooting from the hip on why they say it won't work, but that would be the only reason I can see. Some I've seen on the forum use spacers. Mine came with 1/2 inch spacers, but I'm going to run without them and grind it down a bit then it should be good to go.

Thanks for the pics.

Thinking maybe the change in fork diameter change the radius of the trees too.

Think I might just try the relocation using the l handlebar mounts. Just want the sigs off the handlebars.

These are what I went with a couple of years ago and couldn't be happier with them.

If I'm not mistaken the newer dynas have a different triple tree and these brackets will not work. Check your trees and see if the pinch bolt is at the right angle.

I've just had to re-locate my indicators after fitting higher buckhorn bars. I'm not a lover of the clamp type that go arouind the forks, they look like an afterthought - which I suppose is what they are. Fitting them direct into the top yoke pinch bolt causes problems with them hitting the tank on full lock and I don't like the look of them mounted on the bottom yoke's pinch bolts - hey - I'm fussy!

So, I dug out some aluminium plate that I bought in a few weeks back to make a pair of exhaust hangers for my boys Honda SP1, and set to work fabricating something I actually like the look of. I've got them to this stage (photos below) - they're not finshed yet, not sure whether to paint them black or polish them. I'll decide over the next few days after I've figured out a secure mounting method that ain't going to come loose with the Dynas vibes. I see some loctite going in there - or roll pins in the underside! Or both
