Default Sidemount Plate Bracket?

Can anyone point me to one that mounts to the rear axle or something similar? I've looked at the Kurakyn ones, any others you would reccomend.

Try these guys. Someone had posted link here a few weeks back. Might got this route if they ever start giving us in NY tri-state area a hard time about vertical mounts.

Other thing I might do is get side mount folder off new V-rod and re-work that into something I like.

+1 on the Top Down Products. I have their Roto-Plate and it is the one of the best purchases I have made. Ripped through the Tail of the Dragon scraping pegs and never once scraped the side mount. On top of being a great and innovative product, their customer service is second to none. When I bought it for my Rocker C they thought it would fit and it didn't, but Dennis went above and beyond by designing an axle nut mount that would fit the Rocker. I had the finished product in my hands in less than two weeks. That is great customer service!

IMHO Heartland products are good, but way overpriced for what you get.
