Default Native Custom Baggers License Plate Mount?

Is anyone using this part on their bagger with a 2 into 1 exhaust?

NATIVE License Plate Mount for 2 into 1 Exhaust

I was wondering if you happen to have any pics of it mounted and was also wondering if it takes away any amount of lean in hard turns.

Thanks!

I have my plate mounted in the same location, but I don't have that exact bracket. I got mine from Intermountain Cycle Products. The owner (Greg) used to be a member here, not sure if he still is or not.

I've never scraped it and my bike is an inch lower than stock. The boards hit before anything. Once I here the board scrape, I've never felt like pushing it beyond that.

If you go to the Intermountain Cycle Products site you can see pics of the bracket I'm using. I think he has a pic of my bike on there.

Zach,

Thanks for posting! That looks like a good one too. Do you happen to have a couple pics you can post? One from the side and rear?

I have a side mount bracket from Fireman Joe's that is top notch. BUT, I am going to a 2 into 1 and when I came across the Native Custom bracket, I liked the way it was lower and under the bag instead of behind it. The one you have looks like it might even be better.

Thanks again!

OK! Saw the website has a lot of photos of that part:

Intermoutain Cycle Products

It appears that the bracket puts the plate closer to the bike so the angle should be fine. The Native Custom bracket looks like it sits further out towards the middle of the bag so it left me a little concerned.

That's why I love this board!

Thanks again!

Well, looks like Intermountain doesn't exist anymore. I have sent emails, filled out their contact form and even called and left messages. Looks like I'll be going with the Native Custom bracket...

I just took flat stock. Twisted it in a vice and made my own plate mount. I think it cleaned up the rear nicely.
