Rear Turn Signal relocation - paulw_imp - 05-24-2017

I am going to relocate my turn signals to the rear licence plate bracket. All I need to do so is a source for raw bullet connectors to match the ones Honda uses. I have the wire I need and can solder. Anything I see on the web has wires attached and seems to be only 6" long or so. Any sources out there? Thanks

This place sells connectors like our bike has and I have a kit of the multipin connectors. Here a link to some that may work. I am not sure what size our bullets our and my kit does not have any. You may have to email them and ask.

I just went with aftermarket lights with a long wire set and short adapters to plug into the factory harness. You can find part numbers for the wiring adapter in the link in my signature.

My bike had the signals relocated to behind the rear taillight with brackets to accommodate the hepco and Becker hard side cases. This work was done for me, but I can post photos of the connections if that's helpful?

Please do. I can't seem to find where the connectors are nor for that matter how to remove the turn signals themselves.

I cut the cables and soldered a cable extension. That was the only way, to get'em thru the funnel in the fender.

Paulw, the connections are in a boot by the battery/tool box on the left side. IIRC you have to remove the tool box and left side cover to get to it (semi) easily.

Hey could you please show some up close photos of how the signals are mounted? Your seem to be much narrower than any of the brackets I can find online, I like it

The clamp has the form of a U is mounted using the bolts of the tail light.

It comes with the baggage holder from Fehling.
