Default Nightster Ignition Relocation How To

This was pretty easy. I chopped apart the stock ignition or coil bracket (I can't remember which one) and bolted it to the ground wire near the bottom of the engine and fuse box cover. There is just enough wire to work with to reach back there. I put a different bolt that goes into the ignition housing with a lock nut on it so that the vibration would not shake it loose. SO FAR sooo good !
