I put the quick detach kit on my bike, installed a set of Gem Lights now that the rail is gone... actually had a custom blue dot light done and then got a bracket that Idaspud's son made here that put's it up and under the left bag and since I am running Fatcat pipes, tis perfect for me. Search in the classifieds and he's got some pix posted of them. Top quality and powder coated. Just add an LED light on the plate and you're done.

 

I changed mine and I'm trying to work out what I'm going to do with that "U" Bar thats left behind. I like my set-up but I wish my license plate would wrap around the fender. Because of the angle the mounting points on bracket were cut to enable the bolt holes to line up with the fender and the light bar, the plate bracket is fixed and unable to bend or wrap without misaligning the bolt holes. It was a very close tolerance fit but if I were to bend it the holes would not align...

 

So I know this is an old thread but you have been doing all the things that I am looking to do and pop up in just about every thread so I have to ask... did anything come about it for replacing that ugly support behind the plate? heck I don't even know if i will move the plate anywhere but I might at least cut some off the bottom to get rid of the reflector part if I can. What did you end up doing?

I also plan to do the smoked lense kits on the rear and the place you posted in that thread looks like a good place to start! Thanks

2007 ultra classic tour pack license plate bracket issues

so i took off the shinny silver plate holder / tour pack support and used a band saw to trim off every thing but the sides that support the tour pack painted them black and reinstalled them now you can hardly notice them until i can find a manufacture that specifically makes such a device this will do for now it beats the hell out of that gaudy thing that harley put on there

i have not figured out how to put photos on here to show you but i will shortly

i guess i need to make my photos smaller and get adobe photo shop but i will get them on here some how

click on my user name and you can see a photo of how i trimmed down the license plate /tour pack support that is original equipment with this bike

i moved my plate to the bottom so i didn't want that big shinny thing showing up, under the tour pack

 

i went with the tag bracket from softbrake.com that moves it under taillight and a HID tailight that doesnt have the tag light window in it

 

You ain't kiddin' you trimmed it down! You aren't afraid there isn't enough material there for appropriate support, Especially at that angle? It looks good, just would worry its not strong enough.
