Default Switch relocation?

Has anybody tried or done a switch relocation on a Dyna Lowrider with the double gauges on the console . I hate the switch location in the neck and when you shut it down the key falls to the floor.
Thanks Clap

You would think that HD would offer a relocate kite for Dyna models. I know they would cost as much as the bike, but at least it would be offered.

Could you put a switch in the console like what's in other Dyna's? I would think with a wiring diagram this would not be an impossible task to undertake.
I would like to have a different style also, on the neck is kind of a pain in the butt.

Edit**
Sorry my dumb@&s did not read the post well enough.
Even if there is not enough room on the console for a regular style switch, I would think you can do it with some sort of an aftermarket switch. It is just an open circuit when the switch is on. You should be able to use any switch for this.

Don't think there is room for one on that particular model.
You can try the cowbell location, here is mine. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-...ld-w-pics.html

There is, but you will need to lose your tach or buy a combo speedo/tach to sit where the current speedo is. I did mine using all factory parts except for the harness extension needed for the ignition switch. (needed to be longer to reach the top of the tank)

Google is your friend as "most" of the info I used was on this site.
