Abstract
A mounting assembly for adjustably supporting a turn signal from a motorcycle handlebar. The mounting assembly includes an L-shaped one-piece mounting bracket having a mounting end and a supporting end. The mounting end is coupled to the handlebar and the supporting end is spaced from the handlebar and defines a supporting bore. The supporting bore includes a reduced portion that defines a first engagement surface and a support shaft is received by the supporting bore and includes an externally threaded portion that supports the turn signal, and frusto-spherical portion that engages the first engagement surface. A set screw is received by the supporting bore and defines a second engagement surface that can be tightened against the frusto-spherical portion opposite the first engagement surface to clamp the second portion and to hold the turn signal substantially fixed.
