OK, here's a pic:

See how there's the one piece on the left, bolted to the bigger piece on the right?

Remove that, rotate it 90 degrees right, then reattach it on the top of the other part. Now your plate will fit vertically.

Now I understand.... jeeze I'm lacking vision lately.

As far as being illegal... at least my helmet is DOT.

Thanks for all the help... beats the $125 option in the Kuryaken bin.

Vertical is illegal in MA, too. I really prefer vertical to horizontal. I didn't know that you could simply rotate the bracket/plate. I was actually looking at replacement brackets. I think I'll end up taking my chances with a ticket now that I know I can just use the stock bracket.

You'd think they'd put that kinda info in the owner's manual or somethin'.
