Thanks for the comeback MonteSS. I started the installation and thought I was doing pretty good until I tried to mount the solenoid on the tube frame as stated to do on the directions. I tried to mount it on the vertical tube right behind the radiator. The tube clamps that were provided just barely fit around the tube and the screws that were supplied are not long enough to fasten it together. Either Im doing something wrong or I got the wrong parts. Where did you attach your solenoid? Maybe Im putting mine in the wrong place. Also did you have any trouble finding the red ignition wire? I haven't looked yet but want to make sure I get the right one. Any info you could give me in this matter will greatly be appreciated. Thanks Again & Good riding

I couldn't get mine to mount at any of the locations you said either. I ended up mounting it on the plastic over the radiator and between the hood. It worked real well it has a slight bump in the black plastic over the radiator to allow for the wires and you don't have to worry about it shorting to any metal. As for the ingnition wire I didn't run it to that incase I got stuck and it shut down on me and I couldn't get it started agian and didn't want any extra power drain so I wired it directly to the battery with a 3 amp fuse in line with it. If you want I will e-mail you picks as soon as I get the film back.
