If U guys would go back to the first pic of the radiator, I would like to point out the upper thin metal crossmember on the front of the rad. See how it is cut almost all the way thru? This is where the horn bracket is partially attached. I removed my horn because of this, and bet all our bikes have the same problem. Just a heads up.

This bike has never been ridden with the horn on it.
Removed it the day I bought it.

Those round cross braces are really soft, they'll also pull straight with the vise.
