Those are a lot tighter to the fender and nicer than the stock especially since the bags are not tight to the struts. Would have been too low for my liking since I have RBT lights on my bags. Thanks for sharing

These are my stock turn signals with a low profile plug n play LED tail light with integrated turn. I did not utilize the integrated turn. No issues with my stock turn...so far.

one thing to note tho, if your from Canada you will have to trim your plate down to fit as our license plate is about an 1" bigger all the way around

Changed my seat from a Mustang Wide Tripper Solo Diamond Stitch with Diamond Stitched backrest (also have a diamond stitched passenger pillon) to a Mustang Wide Vintage (Touring) Solo with Backrest....boy it is sure costly to be indecisive.











Will test how it rides on my commute to work. I know I need to give it time to break-in. The only thing I don't like is I can't secure the backrest to the seat like the tripper. Hope my backrest doesn't walk away.

I have the wide touring vintage solo on it's way.
Love the Mustang I have now but it is only good for around 200 a day and not something I would tour on. So we shall see how the new one goes when it arrives

Sure looks nice. Hope it breaks in well and rides nice.

FUNNY - when I'm at the dealership looking for something to add/buy for my bikes I always ask myself #whatwouldhscicdo ????

Good taste my friend!

Ride on safely...

Well my low profile rear license plate turn signal relo kit broke on me. I guess metal fatigue. The turn signals also damaged my paint on the saddlebags. I also have a Moons low profile tail light (pics previously posted). Decided to use the integrated turn signals in the tail light (was there but previously not connected) and take off the relo kit. Much cleaner without the turn signals sticking out. Here is the tail light turn signals at work.




Picked up a HD Laydown License Plate Mount and HD License Plate Frame instead of the Kuryakyn.

Just made an appointment with my painter to repair and repaint the back panel of my bags next week so will be running naked for a while. Here is the damage the turn signal caused on my bags.
