Default Wards fan and minibeast 5

Meant Minibeast 2 not 5


So Jason doesn't manufacturer the replacement mount for the minibeast and his fans anymore. Any other solutions with keeping the MB5 in the oem horn position for a Softail?

How are your Welding/Fabricating skills? Use the stock brackets as a template and the mounting holes to add a sturdy enough custom mount is all I got. That Beast of a horn will probably stick out pretty far and block airflow to the fans. Do you have an oil cooler? If not that might be a better location. Or how about under the headlight on the fork legs? Or concealed in one of them Swingarm Bags, Or on a flag pole in the rear.....

Edit, Just looked at your photos, Not sure which bike your wanting it for but both have solo rider backrests about the size and shape of the horns maybe...Might work.

Looking for it on the Heritage. I would have to get somebody to fabricate a bracket for me. I do most of my work myself but don't have the machinery to do it. I'd like to keep the horn where it is. Not too much room on a Heritage to put it elsewhere.

Also it's MB 2 not 5
