Coop here...Like I tried to say above, your bracket will work if bolted to the bottom, horizontal lip on the crossmember. BUT...there's nothing reinforcing that thin lip and I'm afraid that every time you step on the brake pedal, that lip and your bracket, along with the M/C, are going to flex. A simple, flat plate bolted to the much-more-substantial vertical part of the crossmember ain't gonna flex for nothing! Super nice bracket you built for sure, but a flat plate is a much smarter choice.


NICE drawing, Glenn! DD
