I've searched hundreds of threads (so it seems) I cannot find anything about this... Maybe someone can point me in the right direction...

I am removing the stock tail lights from my 2015 SG, and installing plasma rods for R/B/T.. This leaves three ugly problems...

marked up holes.jpg


I don't want to change my fender, is there ANYTHING out there to cover these holes?? I can cover the lower one with a license plate frame, but the two at the top, I cant find anything to make them pretty, short of making something myself, which is going to be a little time consuming... Is there something off the shelf??

I know I could use the stealth 3 license frame and cover this pretty good, but my friend and I did that to his bike already, I don't want to be a "clone" of his bike, we have the same taste, but I just want something different!

Any help in anyway would be appreciated...

Thanks in advance!

Ok, well looks like no one has an answer, so here is mine...

I made up this little bracket and will get it powder coated with the rest of my stuff I'm having done... Not sure if I'm gonna put a stick on emblem on it, or have it engraved on a mill... I also modified the $50 license plate bracket from Ebay to sit right on the 14 street glide...

Dicky- there is a major safety issues with just having plasma rods as your sole tail lights. Assuming you have a bagger, they cannot be seen from a rear angle or the side because they are sandwiched behind bags. I have them and they are great if seen from directly behind but otherwise could be dangerous and may not be legal as they are not DOT approved.:confused:
 
Thank you for the input. I realize that, I've been riding for 43 years, even been rear ended.. I have LEDs from custom dynamics coming that go into the Antenna hole areas as well.. Just not installed yet.. Plus if you miss my tourpack lights, your blind! I have police grade LEDs from Whelen installed for lights in there, and my tribar light, brake strobe installed as well. And I don't know why my pics are coming in sideways! Grrr

For those of you interested... The tail light bracket holes I drilled, just happen to be where the rear fender brace is, so I just drilled and tapped them into the metal bar behind the fender. Loctite and done...

Sorry Dicky, I missed the fact you have a tour pack! :confused: My bad.
