Relatively new CB1100 rider here. I got a 2013 (USA model) back in March that's pretty cherry with only 6500miles on the clock. I have a medium length touring trip coming up in two weeks and I'm looking for advice on relocating the turn signals so I can attach some soft luggage.

1) Can the turn signals be relocated to the bracket the reflectors sit on? Obviously I would be uninstalling the reflectors to do this.

2) If no, where is the recommended place to mount them? Is there a recommended bracket sold online?

3) What gauge is the signal wire? Is it just 18ga with a thick insulator?

4) What do you use to block the holes on the grab handles once the signals are removed?

6) Failing all that, is there an LED signal kit that can be installed in the original place that won't get bonked by some soft saddlebags? I've looked at pictures of the [url=https://www.motogadget.com/shop/en/m-blaze-pin.html]mBlaze Pin and the [url=https://www.kuryakyn.com/products/6148/kuryakyn-by-kellermann-atto-collection]Kuryakin Atto but they look like they'd fall through the mounting hole. Any commentary by people who've installed these is useful.
I just got micro leds from ebay and used fender washers to have them mount up nicely over the holes in the original mounting locations.

You will need the plug adapters for the rear signals.

These are the signals I got. I SCOURED the internet looking for M6 sized bolts on the turn signals so I didnt have to drill out the stock mounting holes in the front. These were the ONLY ones I could find that come in the stock size. They are very bright. The hyperflash does not bother me one bit. Theyre small enough that they do not come out wider than the rear rack so I can use them with bags.
