That'd be easiest, but I don't have a welder.

I'd put a kit in it, but a week for the thing to get here.
I'll see what I can come up with at the hardware store.

I appreciate the offer Gooey,
I was in Southern Oregon when I joined.
Had to temporarily relocate to Utard to be closer to ailing family.

Thanks though.
I'm sure some L brackets will work. I'll shape em up on the bench grinder

uncle fuzzy.. clean both sides of the bracket of paint, etc. so bare metal.. and use jb weld on it. After that dries it will be the strongest point of that shitty bracket HD used on these bikes.
