Looks great.... I'm going to have to look at mine....
I'm already in he process of relocation the horn... I was going to move it to the front down tubes.... where did you mount it under the tank?

It is directly above the carb manifold, right under the backbone of the frame. It squeezes right in.

I've been running my coil in that location for about 2 years now. No issues with heat even in traffic in Texas.......

Looks good. I wonder if they sell a killer looking coil that you can mount in the same location.

Exile cycles has relocation kits for both horn and coil. They put them back by the splash guard.

Does anybody know if the Rocker coil will work on the older Heritage Softails? The Rocker has this type coil set up right out of the factory, and the way the coil sits the wires run very nicely to the jugs. I did see the ignition at the top of the Rocker coil...could this just be deleted, or bypassed?

Also, the Rocker coil looks small enough to fit under the stock Heritage horn cover. If it did work, I think it would be a really clean set up.

Any thoughts?

I'm sure it would work, but then the under $50 price tag would triple. I completely forgot about pics last weekend, I'll try sat or sun so you guys can see exactly what I did
