Default Question about plug wire compatability
A friend of mine is doing a coil relocation on his nightster, and is having a bit of an issue finding plug wires that are the correct length, that work with the application. He needs something about 12" long. I just am not sure what other wires would work? Thanks guys!

just wondering, where is he putting the coil? the coil seems to have quite a bit of length if you arrange it properly.

thanks for the link! the coil is going in between the jugs, we fabbed up a bracket. looks real nice, instead of it bending up, like an upsidedown "U", it bows outward, this making it a little different for wire length
