After reading other posts on where to fit a Stebel horn, here's how I did it.
Attachment 3291

Removed fairing on left hand side, and passed M4 threaded rod through fairing braket tube. Cut rod to size and secured with washers and nyloc nuts.
Attachment 3292
Metal brackets supplied with the horn were a bit flimsy, so I found a old self support and bent it into shape. I got it at my local ironmonger but you should be able to fashion a bracket out of any suitable strap of steel.
Attachment 3293
Stebel bolted to the bracket in the fairing
Attachment 3294

You can just see it under the fairing, I've got mini indicators fitted, which have a protruding bolt, which gives slightly less clearance. All i had to do was rotate the horn slightly. With OEM indicators there is a bit more space, but it isn't really an issue.

Don't know how robust the M4 rod is & how long it'll last. Now all I've got to do is fit the other side and wire them up.

Anybody got any pictures of how to wire 2 stebels up? I've got a 30a relay, so I'll be using this.

cheers
