Been trolling on Johnnys vintage motorcycles, noticed how nice a LTD looks when turn signals are repositioned either side of headlamp, looks straight forward but does anyone have any knowledge regarding parts needed or done this mod?
Thanks in advance

I was thinking of using the Z1 stems and flashers.

Do they need the correct rubber as usually fitted in normal Z1 headlamp brackets?

Just got Z1 chrome stems, did you enlarge the hole in headlamp mounting bracket, or make it the same shape as the stem, it’s got that oval shape on the stem?
Need to factor in headlamp aim/adjustment too.
