Default Fatboy Front Turn signals

I did a search for relocating Fatboy front turn signals and I only found one thread about it with no real answers. I am looking to take out the bottom screw on the fork tins and put the turn signals there. Does anyone have any ideas on what ill need to do that?

No takers huh? I figured that there was atleast 1 fatboy owner who had moved there turn signals to the forks without using a light bar.

I'll answer although I dont really know. My signals were moved there when I bought the bike. Go to the dealer and ask them. They're usually pretty cool.

I've only seen them relocated on a light bar, so I'm afraid I've got nothing for you. If you figure it out though I'd love to see it!

Moved the signals about a year ago. The dealer had chrome studs that he cut to about 1" and simply screwed the stud to the bottom spot of the fork tin. I think they charged $16. Looks much cleaner and was less expensive than purchasing the auxillary light kit.

Thanks guys for your help. I did stop at the dealer and they gave me some studs to replace the screws with, but the threads were wrong. I looked at the package and it said rear turn signals. so before i even left i asked about it and i got a," thats the right part sir they fight the front and back signals. I personally though that they were feeding me a line but ill try it. and well guess what, they were. ill have to go back there and see if theyll make it right. BillP. the pipes are Vance and Hines Big shot staggered pipes, i love them, i think that they make the bike in both looks and sound. they are pretty easy to put on too.

I think Kuryakyn makes a kit to do just that.
Warning, can't use a detach windsheild with it though.. but if you're not using one, no biggie.

i think the big challenge is finding something that allows you to mount them to the forks and still use a windshield (and no lightbar)...if you're not using a windshield, then kuryakyn has you covered (i think headwinds has a set or 2 that will also work)

I have a relocation kit on my fatboy without the bar and it looks sweet. I also have the Kuryakyn setup for sale, brand new in package. I ordered prior to me seeing someone else with the setup I have. The setup is made by Headwinds. (www.headwinds.com) It cost around $500 for the setup Take a look at mines. Withe the handlebar addition. I get many great reviews.
