I moved the box to the front of the bike and have a chrome tool box in its spot.

You want to ensure there is air flow over the rectifier fins to keep it cool. Believe me you don't want that thing to fail... it WILL shut you down and strand you on the side of the road! I had a two day "adventure" in the middle of no place as a result of a bad rectifier on a harley.

I found a leather bag at a resale store for a few bucks, added a few chrome spots and mounted it over the rectifier. Original Indians always had a tool bag mounted somewhere and that area was a common place.

It's the chrome trim piece that fills the gaps between the rectifier and frame.

Would like to know if the chrome rectifier trim (K53020-161) for a vulcan 800 A/B will fit a Drifter 800.
