subject: side racks and rear turn signal mounting

[James Sherlock]

>>>I have the side racks that I use for Givi bags, but have one problem. With the racks mounted not much of the threads for the turn signals come through the top rack and side rack. I cannot get one of the nuts for the a turn signal to gain purchase on the threads. Is there any solution to get more of the threads for the turn signal stalk to come through for easy nut fastening? Different stalks? Shaving material?

I drew up two relocating brackets and had a local machine shop fabricate them for me. This bracket moved the blinkers rearward about 4 1/2 inches and spread them out an additional 1/2 inch. I think the brackets cost me about $25.00. This way your stock blinkers work, and you can remove them for any possible need without removing the bag mounts. Moving the blinkers also makes them more visible when you bags are on. Jim Smithville-Texas [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
