sweet, how much was the kit? Dude, my bike is going to look jjust like yours! haha, I need to post some pics, I drilled the bars, and installed them, they look pretty good, I have mine with the angle pointing more toward the ground as opposed to yours. I also removed the front fender and relocated the turn signals. But the damn signals on my bike have the wires coming out of a differnt hole, so the turnsignal wires are all exposed, looks lame....anyhow good luck with the install.

word thanks dude. i totally forgot to take the pics of my bike with the drilled holes in the bars for you man. so my bad on that one. but sounds like you figured it out anyways. hopefully i can do the install myself, i'm not the most mechanically inclined person, but i'm not terrible either.

the coil relocation was like 70 bucks and the ignition relocation was like 15, the tank lift came with the coil kit. overall with shipping i spent a little over a hundred bucks.

I think next on my agenda needs to be some sort of speedo relocation.

yea same here. I contacted DK, but they dont make a relocation kit for my bike, (2 plugs per cylinder) so that sucks.....does your speed mount to your dummy lights? or are they two completely different pieces? My speed and tach mount to the dummy lights, so its all one piece. It will take some major cutting/grinding to mount the lights up top and move the speedo next to the tank.....

I made my own tank lift but got the dk coil key after relocating and lifting tank and hiding wires under tank and removing plastic housing it's one of my fav mods makes bike look so much better I'm sure yer gunna love it. And emporer worm my friend had same prob we stuck his coil under tank after 3 " lift and moved key right next to batt box

Really? he has the 2 plugs per cylinder as well? Do you think you could sent me pictures of it? was it a kit that he bought or did you just fab something up? Let me know, Thanks.

Not bashing DK but I did my whole relocation for less than $70 I do however like there tank lift setup.

I bought actual harley bracket (1200c engine mount) $32, screaming eagle rocker C 10mm plug wires $21, and u-bolts to use the solid piece of flat steel for my nearly 1.5" tank lift along with misc hardware $10+/-.
