You don't have to drill for the YAFFEE frame.  You may need to get longer bolts and maybe elongate the fender bolt holes.

Regards

X2....you don't have to drill for the Yaffe, and I didn't even have to elongate any holes.

I have to be missing something.....I'm stuggling to understand the problem.  Keep it simple.

JCZ, What frame is that and does it have a tag light? I like that clean look.
Thanks!

tequilla,

How did you get the reflector off your stock set-up?

It's the Kuryakn and yes, it has the little LED license plate light up in the top part of the frame.

Was it made for any particular application? I see its not the Kury that they make for the cvo street glide.
Thanks

I was just looking for the part number.  Seems like it was a Kuryakn #1147 or something like that but I can't find it now.  A number of the members with the SESG have it.

The problem with the "Keep it Simple" approach above is you need to drill into your very expensive CVO's fender to do this.  Something a lot of people, myself included, have a problem doing. 

Kuryakyn apparently decided to position the plate below the hole in the fender because they thought the plate looked better down lower.  Guess they failed to notice the ugly hunk of chrome they had to place above the plate to accomplish this aesthetically pleasing location. 

This is why I have manufactured my own back plate that positions the frame high enough up to cover the hole and still uses the factory mounting holes already in the fender, so no drilling is required.  Since my bike came in late last year and went right into storage after the 1,000 mile service I have not mounted the new frame yet.

Here is a pic of the back plate I manufactured out of 1/8" stainless steel.  The 2 fender mounting holes are countersunk so after the back plate is mounted to the fender the screws will not stick up and interfere with the license plate.  The 4 holes in the corners are tapped to allow screwing the Kuryakyn frame directly to it.

I just need to wait until I get my bike out of storage so I can decide what thickness spacers I need to keep the back plate and frame from touching the fender.  Then I can put it all together and get some final pics to share.

Any chance of buying a copy of the bracket and spacers when you finish?

Noreaster you have inspired me! As soon as I A) Get the bike in and B) get the proper kury frame, I'm going to make something similar. I have some stainless and as soon as I get the dimensions from the bike, I'm giving it a try!

The SS mount is a great idea, and if it gives you the finished product you are looking for then you are in!! I understand not wanting to drill your fender, but it is just a fender. I will be really surprised if you can get the same look using a bracket. When you bolt the frame to the fender it fits tight up against the fender, no gap, the next best thing to being molded in. I am not downing your bracket at all, hell if it work and gives the same result I will kick myself in the butt, just don't see how that is possible.
