Ignition module relocation

    Gotta move my ignition module as it hits the top of my new starter motor (mounts under oil tank)

    Is there a more compact one available or other option? (current one is approx 25 x 70mm x 130mm) With all the "minimalist, neat and tidy" choppers gettin around I figure there must be other options?

    Tried to mount behind the oil tank but will interfere with swingarm movement

    Looking at trimming front of rear fender and mounting behind the battery (looked at mounting on the front of the rear guard but this would mean trimming out the seat base)

    I have replaced the old plastic rear wheel guard with a stainless one (homemade) would this be a suitable mounting position with regard to the wires and the movement of the swingarm?

    All advice appreciated, cheers Burnzi

    Burnzi, a softy I rebuilt for a mate had two well nuts on the frame where your earth cable is in front of the debri defloctor on your rear fender.
    It had an electrical caddy there that I tossed and screwed the module on there and its fine, can send you a pic if you cant get your head around it

    the later ones mount to the front of the rear gard , what about between the two fuel tanks  ,fair bit of room there
