yes sir. you will need to remove the lights and cut the top of the light mount where the neutral light and ignition are. heres a shot of mine sinking. plastics are stock.

you could drill new holes or make a mounting bracket. this is my dads z400 after i relocated all the lights and ignition when he got new handlebars. you can basically put them wherever you want, as long as theres room behind the plastics.

and heres a good thread on relocating lights. http://www.exriders.com/vbb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=313111
