Anyone know where I can score a bracket to replace the passenger peg bar to hold the muffler? They used to be on ebay but I couldn't find any on there.

Hi M,

Deputy1042- Thanks for the link. Must of missed that in my search.
PIMPMYFZR- what were you thinking of switching to? How did the ebay one hold up?
yamaha george- are they actually fzr600 specific or do you know of any other bikes that interchange? i checked bikebandit and they didn't have any fzr ones, but tons for other bikes.

that doesn't look that hard to build. your mainly just welding some tubing into a V and using washers where the the bolts go to mount up. but the ebay one looks a lot better imo.

off topic, thats the airtech fairings on that bike right?

http://www.kneedraggers.com/list/1318/m ... zuki/SV650 Maybe you can bend it to fit? Seems like a lot of money for taking a chance it won't fit.

This is all I could find, unless PIMPMYFZR can tell you where he got his from. I couldn't find any similar items either. I thought the old CBR600F2 used to come with this, so if you could find anyone parting one out on maybe the WERA 13x forum perhaps, although this is very unlikely, because that is an OLD bike.

It might almost be easier to go down to Home Depot and get a piece of aluminum you can cut down, grind, and bend to get what you're looking for. I suppose you could try to call Vance & Hines to see if they have anything, depending on what kind of exhaust you have.

I looked in the Dennis Kirk catalog and couldn't find anything. It doesn't hurt to stop by your local bike shop and try also, they usually have suppliers like Tucker Rocky that may have oddball parts like that. If you find one let us know, it's something that can be put in the WIKI under "exhaust".

Did you originally get yours from ebay too? It probably wouldn't be that hard to polish it.

this is the one i bought cant remember if i paid this much for it but your exhaust will boolt right up tothis and Yes u can polish the shit out of it and make her shine like crazy , but in a week you will have to polish it again . I dont mess wit it anymore personally LOL2 after a while u get sick of tryin to make it shine when it allready is .

I really like that style more compared to the aluminum bracket style. And really that would be pretty easy and cheap to produce.
