My sidemount has no light but I'm not too worried. I designed it so it'll be real easy to add if I get pulled over.

Mojo, the plate bracket on the tri-bar just unbolts between the light assembly and the plastic shell that mounts to the fender.

Harley has silver motor touch up spray paint. I'm thinking about painting a black finned derby cover to match.

Looks as if your mods. are coming right along. Looking good there beau. I've road to work all this week, today there's a chance of rain later on tonight, but I'll probably ride anyway.
Can you post detailed pics of how you mounted your signals at the forwards? i'm not currently running any forward facing signals and that may be a good option........

Mojo, bike is looking sweet! Im running the pro one turn signal light bar and had it powdercoated. http://www.pro-one.com/401710_Turn_Signal_Bar_p/401710.htm I think I picked it up for about $76 and the wiring was fairly easy. It mounts just below the triple trees under the headlight with minimal hardware change (new bolt) and keeps the front end clean.

Mojo, thanks for the tailight info, that tribar tailight is pretty cool i saw one on a softail at the dealers. I'm eventually going to cut down my original tailight / plate mount and probably use this side mount from kuryaken. http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/common...16&imgId=0

It doesnt actually have the red light shown on the bottom, but i wont need it as i'll still have the stock tail light on the bike. It does have the small white led's in it to light the plate, so no hassle from the man.

I like the idea of the curved plate mount as it might not get blocked as easily if ithrow a pair of saddlebags on for a trip. Its about $ 115 so not bad for chrome.

Willyp and 1cut1, are your signal lights still visible enough to be safe and seen ? I've done the relocation kit and chrome visors on mine and i'm pretty happy with them, but i have at times thought of changing them like yours. I've always been a little worried that they might not be so visible if i did. Enough damm drivers allready turn left in front of me now !

cheers
Ian.
