    I notice on my bike(Sig.). The front turn signals r bolted 2 the forks. I was wondering if I remove those 2 bolts holding the turn signals. Would it screw up the adjustment of the forks? Or anything like that?

    Thanx

    Not sure man, i know they are part of the brackets that brace the forks but i am not sure if you can take them completely off.

    Do one side at a time,and don't mess with the top clamp,or move the bike a lot when removing the signals,and you should be fine.

    You can remove the clamp bolts to remove the signal lights without messing anything up. Just make sure you put the bolts back in and tighten them good before riding.
