You made it happen! If not for people like you, helping to develop these products, we would be hard pressed to offer solutions like this to the community. Thanks for all your help!

Hey Mike! Here is a picture from the Top-Down Products Site of the swing arm mount kit. the site notes. "The Kit includes an 2-Pc Clamp Set, Spacer Sleeve and a 1/2” x 2” bolt." It comes in Chrome, Gloss or Flat Black Powder Coat and costs $69.00.

I was just referring to the cost of the mount itself ($69), without the plate assembly, I probably should have mentioned that in my post.

YES, it works with Swing Arm Covers. That was one of the factors that drove the shape and size of the "True-Fit" Clamp. As you can see from the pic attached below, the test bike had a Swing Arm Cover. My tester, "ThunderRock63", spent a lot of his time evaluating the fit and possible locations for the Clamp. Because of his work the Roto-Plate with the "True-Fit" clamp will allow for mounting on both upper or lower bars of the swing arm and will allow you to keep the swing arm covers if you got them.

Here's the pricing:

Roto-Plate (w/Brake Light) $339
Roto-Plate Jr. (No Lighting) $289
"True-Fit" Clamp set only (no Roto-Plate or Jr) $69

Is the "True-Fit" clamp only designed to work with the Roto-Plate, or can other side mounted plate holders be mounted to it?
