Default Horn Relocation?

1200 Custom 2009 Anybody move the horn? Seems like the cylinders would look way cooler than that big ol'e horn.

Relocation kit?

Hey Ron,

I sold my cowbell a long time ago and picked up a mini round horn on ebay for $8 and made a bracket from sheetmetal and stuck mine between the front down tubes like some of the stock models have. My ignition key and choke is why my horn was.

Cool, that is where I considered putting a horn. Looked in your gallery not a left side shot there. Right side looks great though. Mine's red also.

I'll put a leftside shot in there sometime. Here's a link from another album showing what I put where the horn was:



Sorry, did not find pics of my horn but it basically looks just like whats on the nightster maybe a little smaller on a home made bracket.
