Looks good. Care to share some more details on what you used and how you did it?

I put the horn in the front under the steering head. The coil bracket is a piece of 1/4 inch steel cut in the shape of a "T" turned upside down with a 1 inch dia. by 3/4 inch aluminum spacer bolted to the old horn bracket. I removed the seat post and cut the coil cover bracket off to mount the cover on the new one.

And the plug wires are custom cut from an MSD universal Harley kit.

Looks good. Considering this mod myself. I want to run the coil out of my horn cover shown below. Thinking stainless steel braided spark plug wires and running the horn in front of the mudguard.
