From what I can tell in looking at pictures, the rear fender/license plate area of the S2T has two holes on each side for turn signals. My S2T has very crappy aftermarket turn signals installed into the rear most holes, but the previous owner "fixed" an old crack or some other kind of damage with a gob of JB weld.

So - What location where the signals installed from the factory for bikes with saddle bags?

If it's the front holes, I'm thinking of just glassing over the rear holes when I repair the mess the previous owner made.

Thanks!

The forward (original S2) holes were plugged and new rear holes made for the addition of saddlebags. In both cases, the big holes had smaller positioning holes for the dimple in the turn signal stalks.

Should look like this:

Tigermann - that’s exactly the info I needed, thanks!

BTW - nice color S2T!

Jeremy,

Not mine, just a picture I kept to show placement of the bag mounts.

Mine is Quicksilver metallic #241
