    Default Givi V35 and Turn Signal Relocation

    Has anybody mounted Givi V35s on their RS without relocating the stock turn signals? I don't want to mount the signals on my fender. Is there a kit available? I'm new to the Can-Am Spyder world so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    This is what I went with. Easy to install, VERY bright and no relocation of the signals.

    That's a consideration. Thanks.

    Default yep

    The rack for bags relocates them upward. Pic below.

    Depends on the kit. If you have the rebadged BRP Givi V35s from the dealer, the Can Am rack kit relocates the signals on "ET" like stalks, sticking up high like the picture posted above. If you got the Givi racks from givi, they relocate the signals onto the rear fender:



    I'm sure you can get stubby turn signals from Buell, Rizoma, Lockhart-Phillips and other sport bike accessories places. But with the Givi bags on, the stock locations are hidden except from the back view, so that makes relocation a must for safety. I've thought about the bag lights, but unless you run with the bags constantly attached you will still need some sort of directional signals.

    Another option is a turn signal integrator that combines brake and turn signals in the stock brake light.

    I have the actual Givi bags. I'm assuming that would still fit on a Can-Am rack?? I would rather have them sticking up than mounted on the fender. Thanks for all replies.
