Vertical Side Mounts - Problems?! (Pics)
I have just purchased the kuryakyn vertical mount for my XL1200C and the mounting point that I can find for this model is way close to the middle part of the bike.
The brake caliper and the lines gets in the way to get it closer to the back.
There is no room after the suspention meets the swing arm.
So that is the best I can do.
Looking directly from the back of the bike, the Suspension gets in the way alittle bit to get a full view of the plate (Most likey the cops).
But if you are maybe 1 car or more length behind, it should be viewable.
In everyone's honest opinion, what are the chances that I get pulled over?!

Mine comes with a square bracket that goes on the swing arm.
I think your mounting might be utilizing the bolts?
The bracket itself hugs the swing arm and I use 1 bolt to mount the "plate side" to the "bracket".
Or am I not comprehending you?! sorry if that was the case!!

That's probably something I should have got!!
But this one came with LED's so it will light up the license plate thinking it might have been better choice to not get too much attention from the cops....
Hmm...... can anyone else enlighten me on this?!
