Instead of cutting a slot in a socket, I cut a slot in a 9/16 offset boxed end wrench. Works good. I couldn't find a line wrench with enough offset. Seems to me if you use a socket, the turn signals would have to be removed to have enough room for the socket and rachet.

Howard, I'll shoot some more pics here shortly and post them.

SG1, good points, actually I just loosened the turn signals, slightly turned them out of the way,covered them with a sock and put the small 9/16 socken on the bolt.

I'll take a pic of what I used.

Thanks guys for the compliments.

Put the adapter in the socket, turn socket and adapter with 1/4" wrench in small increments till tight. Worked like a charm.

 

that's how you can save alot of money , is to continue to install parts yourself.

 

100% corrdect... And still a cake walk

 

Thank You very much for your timely response. They look much better than the stock w/Bar. Back in the 70's they did away with the bar but the mounts were too flimsy. Let us know when you ride it if you experience too much vibration.

The reason I ask is: I am putting in (Passing Lamps) HID 35 watts on a few bikes using Adjure buckets & lens (lamps). I bought a pair of 3" & a pair of 4 1/2" last week but waiting for delivery. Your turn signals look much better than the stock ones also. We are making a new wiring harness to fit into the bucket but I do not think I will be able to put it through the stem but who knows. The igniter will be in the bucket but the pair of ballasts will be located in the nacelle (along with the original ballast (Headlight also HID).

When you get older you need more light especially in the country/rural areas. I am going to put them on my friends 1967 FL first. Getting rid of the bar cough my eye. These bikes have a problem with the fender crushing against the headlight bar, unlike your bike. Here is a few photos of the 66 Pan/Shovel. Your bike looks much better than stock by a long shot.

The second photo is after I installed disk brakes on the bike.

I want to put these on my RKCustom, but the overall cost is just too much for me right now. Probably be more labor intensive too, without the fairing to hide everything in. Looks good Ultra!!
