check with a member here "spursmech" there was some talk about a year ago about making them, not sure whatever happened with this, maybe he can point you in the right direction.

they're a pain to find, i had a batch of 4-5 made from the guy from scotland, offered to have another but would need to have 10 sets made.

wow thats actually pretty cheap. one of my sets went for $180 on ebay here.

its also the good kind that doesn't use hose clamps.

If your handy, you can make your own.

A few posts down there is a template. Just print the file up at 1-1 scale, transfer it to the material of your choice, cut it out and shape it.
There is also a couple of people that sell them in this thread too.

I have a set at home that has never been installed. I have been thinking of selling them.

mentioned in the other thread about being cosmetic, but i dissagree. When scooting pretty good you can "Hold On" to the bike better with your knees.

Great Idea and at a very good price, but I need to try making some first.......

Mine came from England, already on the bike when I bought it. I'm not a big fan, they dig in sometimes.

If anyone has a set of these, I'm looking to buy some like by tomorrow. So if anyone wants to sell as long as I can polish them into almost chrome, let me know. Thanks, Ed

Honestly for me, if I am hitting it I normally place my feet on the passenger pegs.

I believe these work better when you have rearsets installed. With rearsets your knees tend to drop down and can bang against the frame and motor. The plates provide a flat surface to rest your knees against.

I'd like a set of these.. not sure if they'd fit on my holeshot framebraces...

 

[Fitz666]

My bike was the test bike for the Scottish made ones, I also have then on with a frame brace and the fit fine.

Speak with him direct rather than email and I am sure he can do you a good deal.

I have these and they are fine with my german frame braces. You just dont use the support bracket. I just put rubber stoppers on the back and they are fine. They dont flex from what I have seen in the past year with them. Oh and I did have to mod the mounting bracket to allow placement pass through for the framebrace bolt. That was fun cutting out for sure....love my dremmel!

you'd probably have to go with the hose clamps one like me (exactrep braces)
