Default FRONT turn signal relocation

Don't particularly care for the goofy looking bar they are attached to under the headlight and am considering moving them up to the handlebars. Any thoughts/suggestions?

If you settle on a lightbar instead of handlebar mounts, you'll need to double check windshield compatibility. My Cobra lightbar didn't play nice with my Memphis Shades, and I had to relocate the windshield higher.

I like your idea, I too have asked about changing my turn signals, but I want the replacement signals to mate up to the stock location correctly.

A friend has that on her 1100 Saber. I liked them but they were $200+ ea. Don't like them that much.
