I've moved my front indicators.
Not, As I've seen in some pics, to the inside of the fork legs so that they sit close together. This looks, at first sight, to be a much neater solution but I'm not convinced as to how safe it will be. Would on-coming drivers be able to distinguish between left and right when you're turning? Or would it also necessitate the use of hand signals?
I had toyed with the idea of mounting the turn signals on the handlebars, the way most other models have them. They are usually attached to the handlebar controls. I'm not really happy with that look and the number of people on HD forums asking how to mount them onto the fork legs may show that others agree with me.
All I've done is to move them down the fork leg so that the bracket sits tight against the underside of the lower triple tree. It leaves the forks looking much cleaner and the headlight is now sitting on its own and less cluttered.
I will leave it like this until I decide what to do about the front end. I'm going to replace the rear turn signals with RBS black billet ones but will leave the fronts in chrome until I've decided on black or shiny forks.
Then again, I may splash out on RBS bullet signals. Much smaller but expensive.
But, as they only come in sets of four, back and front have to be purchased at the same time.
