I did this with mine because I installed a Harley police seat:

I really like the way Gort has his fuel line set up.

No more dammed petcock/ vacuum line problems, and a nice big fuel filter. Function before Form.

that's clever putting it in the tool box. what are you gonna do to keep it ventilated? cut slots in the cover?

Im still a bit concerned about this. Ive seen pictures of rectifier mounted on the side of the fender which is open to the air etc.
I live in England it rains all the time ::)

You can put it down near the bottom of the frame where emissions stuff goes for the CA bikes. That is what I had done previously.

I'v had the toolbox cover over the rectifier now for well over a year, and experienced no overheating problems whatsoever.
