Fabbing an adaptor to move signals back. May duplicate for y'all - Romo1969_imp - 04-03-2014

Ok. So sent my rail and light to my fab shop in detroit that specializes in custom auto test parts.
Going to have it made to be inspired by the factory design and look as honda original as possible.
Directing them to make it to be somewhat universal so we can perhaps offer on the open market for you and others. Post pics when complete. And pricing.

Will be interesting to see what they come up with

Planning about 2.5" back. Based on the bags I use and most sizes that should be enough to do it.
My fab guy is really good and a fellow moto guy. Thinking he will do a good job and has a shop cab able of making crazy prototype stuff for race cars and such.

I'd be interested too.

Some of the kits I have seen have placed the signals right on top of each other it seems. If this mod could retain some of the spacing the better in my opinion.

Yes, I would prefer that they meet minimum DOT spacing.

Agreed. Somewhere on this site is a pic of the H & B kit that relocates the signals for their side cases. I wasn't crazy about how close the lights are to the tail light.

OK, it was member Jodyz. I found the pic :



I tried fitting my Nelson Rigg Spirit-50 bags from my CB750 on my CB11 and the rear turn signals are getting in the way. I'd love something that just moves them back a few inches.

Holy crap!
If my guy does anything close to this I'm going to kill him. Lol.
A quick concept mock up. Told him a manual window lever would almost work in terms of design. [Image: 8a936097ff0a3375968b0c7f1fba7743.jpg]
