Title: Sidemount SSS license plate mount - Anyone have one/make one ?
Post by: ProTeal55 on June 23, 2009, 09:53:25 AM
Might of been posted about before but my Monster is in dire need of a side mounted plate frame. I see side mount plate frames all the time for jap bikes, but never Ducati's. I did see one on a HyperMotard this past weekend but by the time I tracked the guy down he was riding off.

Anyone have a sidemount on a SSS (Single Sided Swingarm) bike ?
And if so where'd ya get it, how's it mount, etc ?
Pics ?

Thanks in advance... [thumbsup]

this was the first one with a tag light, i have made a new one sans light since the plan is to use a narrow beam LED to illuminate it from above. I used the chain guard mounting holes for the mount.

LOL, and it doubles as a chain guard!!!  [cheeky]

Can I get a sideshot of how the plate frame attaches to the swingarm (if you dont mind)..

I can try, but i can also tell you that i used the stock chain guard bolts and holes to mount it. take off your chain guard and you will see what i mean.

Chain guard was the first thing to be removed from the bike when I brought it home from the dealer (bike was still warm when I took it off [thumbsup]). Just cant picture how it works (hence the pic request)..

Thats funny.
Gravity and vibration decided to remove my rear chain guard somewhere along the way...
