Default Coil Relocation Bracket?
I've been looking around for a bracket to relocate my ignition coil. I know how to do it, but I just need the bracket. The only ones I can find are on eBay for like, $60-100 shipped. That seems like an awful lot for something so simple.

Is there something cheaper available?

Maybe try Ebay for an older Sportster bracket that mounts there that would have originally held the horn & choke pull? Then modify it to what you need...

Or just make one yourself. It looks like a simple piece.

I will try to find a pic of mine. It is very simple to make. Just be sure it is made of steel or it will break from vibration fatigue.

I don't really know how to make things, and think I lack the tools.

I ended up just buying one.

I don't have the space or the luxury of being able to move tools around constantly. :P
