Hey Shane, who says you can only use it for relocating the key ignition :D
Looks goods but, please be aware of the following.

Someone else just recently contacted us about this, they did the same modification to their's and the additional weight of the horn combined with it protruding out further eventually caused the bracket to fail at it's mounting point.

Our brackets were only designed to support the ignition with plastic cover, when combined less than a 1/2 lb. Most of these style horns are 2 to 4 times that weigh, with there center of gravity being out much further creating continued flexing that does not occur with the ignition. Lets hope yours will be fine, I just wanted to be sure to pass on the information

Thanks
Shane

I'd be a customer for a bracket to mount a nice looking black bracket for mounting a WOLO air horn (Chrome of course) in that area between the two Cyl.

Shane?
I wouldn't be surprised if Shane's bracket could be easily adapted for a horn.

Having toyed with ideas for the opening behind the neck and other places I think Shane's design is elegant in its simplicity. Those other spots have lots of challenges that complicate things. I'm digging this design.

While I really like the idea of being able to relocate the key and all I'm really not digging having that whole cover and all moved over to the side of the bike. It looks just as out of place there as it does in front, in my opinion. Maybe it would look better all blacked out, but I think it needs a different shape cover to look like it belongs down by the engine.

I think it would look even better if it were horizontal sticking out of the side like the Honda's and Harley's do. I haven't taken the cover off to see what the ignition itself looks like, but maybe a bracket that would allow it to be positioned horizontally would be really cool.

I suppose if it's possible to relocate the whole assembly, one could just replace the whole unit, but then you have mismatched keys and all that nonsense to worry about.

I have to agree. I would like to move it to that small open triangle space in the frame right under where the ignition is now.

Dam glad to hear this. I've been messing around with a couple of bracket ideas none of which made me happy. This is perfect.

I got a bullet headlight for Xmas that's still in the box waiting for the ignition relocation. I'm scrapping my attempts and going with this.

I'll be second to buy!

Wow it looks awesome w/out the ignition mounted on the bars! Once the ignition re-location kit is ready I'm going order it and speedo Mount from shame and do some custom drag bars.

That would be sick. I've heard som double lights are one low and one high. Do you know of any that have both low and one high.

This is giving me some outrageous ideas.
