No I used part of the seat post as a bracket and part of the original mount. Weld, cut,chop, that old chestnut you know.

Hey Dave, I guess you had to extend the wires on the coil right? What type of wire did you use to extend the coil wires?

I did not have to extend any wires cause mine is carbed, just re-routed them. I also did one on my buddies 07 train fuel injected and had to extend wire, and I used 16gauge, solder and heat shrink.
