Best way to mount this??/ (Pic) By Gti (Read 506 times)

What is the best way to mount this bracket? My swing arm does not have any holes to mount this on it and the exhaust does not have the bracket built into it. Confused!!

It bolts to the swing arm bolts that are above and below the dipstick. You may need to replace them with longer bolts. If you have a disc brake model, like me, the lower bracket arm will likely contact the swing arm rendering it it useless.

When I still had my carbon pipe, I had to use a large stack of washers and really long bolts to shim the bracket out, then I bolted the muffler strap to the opposite side side of the bracket as intended.

EDIT: Here's a picture . Can't really see in detail what's happening, but should help.

Josh has got you covered there, that's exactly where it bolts on. When I mounted one of those I had to use washers also to move it out so that the bracket didn't hit the swingarm. They act like they're a simple universal bracket and they can be far from it. Rich

hey, sometimes they dont line up right....Mine didnt...i could only bolt up the top side and the one to the exhaust. My fix was i spun the strap facing downwards towards the swing arm and made a short extension and bolted it to the swing arm exhaust mounts...
