Ebay Side mount Plate
Another ebay Item. 26 bucks delivered to my door...Awesome!! I mounted it to the rear belt gaurd bolt. I was planning on mounting it to the axle, but I like it better on the bolt gaurd and it was easier. For changing the plan of mounting I had to get a washer as you can see, but you can tell the company to drill the 5/16 hole you need for the mounting bracket. But the 3/4 hole for the axle fits perfect over the rubber gromets for the belt gaurd and fits flush with the swing arm. I'll get some model paint to get a better gloss black match. It's powder coated black or you can get it stainless, but that's it. It's sturdy and it doesn't budge on the belt cover bolt. It doesn't have a light, but I'll wait till it becomes an issue, I'm hoping that the turn signal is bright enough since I have the run/brake/turn module in it and it's on all the time. Let me know what you think. I'll take better picks tomorrow during the day.

Be careful of the vibrations...my father had a very similar side mount on his bike, which was a softail, and it broke off.
Being a dyna, maybe it won't get as much vibration, but it ended up breaking off at the point right where the bend is from how it attaches...

Thanks for the heads up SHOCKWAVE but we'll see it was only 26 bucks. The steel is like a 1/8 inch thick. I got this ebay store from someone else in this forum and he said he dumped his bike and was laying on the plate frame and it didn't even bend. Once the summer is here and the snow goes away we'll find out once I'm back on the road.
JACKINTHEBOX here's the the ebay store. They have several versions from flames, to horizontal, vertical and curved and like mine. If you want lights just get those LED license plate bolts.

It wouldn't have worked on your axle anyway. I ordered the same one about 3 months back ...the listing stated that it would fit 3/4" and 1" axles. 2008 Dynas have 25mm axle as it turns out.
I sold it to another member here on the forum who had a 3/4" axle.
