I actually set it on a 5 gallon bucket I had next to the front wheel. Here's some pics.

I found the most frustrating part to be threading the wiring on the throttle side. I left the throttle/idle cables attached which meant I had to wrestle with the bars/wires/switch housing all while dangerously close to painted parts. An extra set of hands to hold everything while pulling wires would have been great.

If you plan on relocating your sigs then now's the time to do it. One less set of wires to pull.

jstreet- Love the flames. Just the right amount in my opinion.

I have the Lick's 12" Z's. Had a buddy do the install, from all accounts running the wires through the sharp bends can be a bi*ch. there is a ton of tips on here about how to get it done though. You will like them for sure.
