Pretty sure the cycle salvages run a national parts locator system like auto salvages do. Call your closest salvage and see, might find a decent used mount you can clean up. Harleys love used parts.

When you find everything you need, and get it hooked-up, you'll be able to do this:


My future plan also.

Thanks Tom! Might clash with my new blue and also looks as if it's the wrong way round!

Update-- My local dealer found a complete mount kit using the dealer inventory search. Last one in the country! I have to finish the bike that is on the lift now, then start installing the mounts on the RG. Known obstacles:
The Thunderheader may be in the way of the rear mount.
My floorboards have been extended forward so far they may be an issue.
I will have to go back to the original front m/c with the remote resevoir.
The vertical Jagg oil cooler may conflict with the upper mount.
Wiring, wiring, wiring.

I have no room in the garage for the whole rig. The hack is being kept in my Brother's barn. I have to finish and sell three bikes.

Well, there is no rest for the wicked.

Well done B, I just knew 'we' could get a result on the mountings! No pressure, but we will expect photos of the finished outfit before long......

Awesome news, congrats. Those obstacles will go one-by-one. The Thunderheader sounds like your only real challenge.
