Do I need this bracket?
I just removed the stock header system on my 2007 FLHX this afternoon in anticipation of a new V&H Pro Pipe Chrome arriving early next week.
I noticed what looks like a bracket that seemed to only provide extra support for the rear header pipe where it bends to the left side of the bike. It's mounted right behind what I believe is the starter. Attached is a photo with the bracket highlighted in yellow. Do I need to keep this bracket for any reason??
Thanks for your help!

JB

by the way, you're going to really dig that pro pipe. i really like mine, and no, that bracket isn't needed for the pro pipe.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I sure did look like it wasn't used for anything one the stock headers were removed, but thought it worth while to check with the knowledge base hear to make sure I wasn't going to create any problems for myself.
Others have mentioned that the allen bolts might be too long after removing the bracket. If that's the case, I'll pick up a few washers to solve that problem.
