Ruining the Accell coil packs, so no need for the "grenade "

Relocated the ignition to the top of the belt guard, but now with the SS, the swing arm geometry will change and I'll probably run out of room. Oh well, that's the fun of modding these things!

nice and creative on the key switch relocation. you got a product link to the coil packs? i was thinking of running dual dynatec coils with a billet bracket, powdercoated gloss black. i'll check out the accell coils as well.

Pretty good group of members here and not much BS, just some occasional lame humor from me..

Hand grenade coil is really one of the cheapest looking parts on BO. So far wasn't able to find a good looking alternative for it. This might be a possibility but a gloss black or chrome one would match better the bike, imho.
Let's hope some brand will produce a different coil or a nice looking cover for BO and Rocker owners...
Only cover found is the V-Twin one for the moment...

... okay here's a dumb question.


Asked earlier about adding a Breakout to my Sportster for something different, but I didn't realize quite how stretched out the rider is. I'm only 5'6 (yeah.) and was wondering if the reduced reach seat and some different bars would make it comfortable for me?
