Default getting rid of rear pegs

Anyone know where I could get a bracket for my standard height exhaust on a 2001 F4i so I can get rid of the rear pegs? I have searching the internet, and all I can find is one on ebay that doesn't look that great. Thanks.

Yeah, I'm considering de-pillioning mine, too. Replacing the seat with a Corbin + Smuggler

Maybe.

If you find a good bracket, please share any info. I have some (very) entry-level metal fab skills and could make *something*, but I gotta believe there's something nice out there already.

yes there is...but for like $70 bucks i'd just fab a metal piece. there's the ebay one and then the one made by one of the more known companies that i can't think of right now like graves or something.

If you do decide to make one, let me know how much you want to throw one my way. I was thinking, and this may be a dumb thought, but would it be possible to support the muffler from the bottom, say bolting it to the axle spool? That would give the tail such a clean look.

Hmm trying to mount the exhaust to a bracket connected to any part of the swing arm isn't the best idea. Cause when your suspension compresses and uncompresses your exhaust will be getting forced up and down along with it.
