    Edgar - Welcome to the dark side. I've seen 'em with bags before, and the turn signals wind-up back by the tail light. Don't know if you can move the ones that are on it or if you need a complete new setup. Here's a pic (don't know whose bike it is, but it sure is purty)...

    I think I have a loose screw behind the handlebars.

    '79 XS11 Standard, Jardine 4/1, Dyna DC1-1 Coils, 145 mains, 45 pilots, plastic floats - 25.7mm, XV920 fuel valves, inline fuel filters, speed bleeders, Mikes XS pods, spade-type fuse block, fork brace, progressive fork springs/shocks, manual petcocks, 750 FD, Venture cam chain tensioner, SS brake lines

      The factory equipped hard baggers (standards anyway), came with bar that attached to the licence plate holder and relocated the turn signals.
      When a 10 isn't enough, get a 11. 80g Hardbagger
