Big Radius 2-1 bracket "438-P" for Dyna.

Hi all,

Bought a V&H BR 2-1 online, but wasn't aware of the missing bracket. So now I'm kinda f-'d.
This model is dicontinued, so no parts available with V&H.
I could ask a metalshop to fabricate one, but I don't have dimensions...

Anyone who can help me with dimensions, the part itself or maybe knowing a place to buy?

Thanks in advance!

With a good template you can mail it to a shop willing to help vs a local.

Thanks BB, that's an option I have considered, but there wil be room for play there. I don't want any issues as a result of minor misalignement... But when no or little alternatives, then yes ;-)

Hey d1gg00 you might want to change your font color.

Even the factory bracket will have generous clearance in the bolt holes. You will probably make a better template with more accurate geometry than a shop will because you will take your time.

Oops... Now I see what you meant... I use DarkReader, so all websites have a dark theme. When I switched to light theme I saw the grey font on de light background. I did not choose that, but I changed it back to black. My "nope" was with "tong in cheek" intended.
