Default Where might I find one of these?!

Well it is a pretty simple part, the circular canister clamp that mounts to the bottom of the footpeg somehow fell off my bike today. and I was looking for a new one to fit my older Two Brothers can but no matter where I go (google, ebay, etc) I can't find one that fits correctly. I was wondering if anyone knew a universal one or I'm probably going to have to call TwoBros tomorrow and buy one for like 25 bucks urgh.

I was thinking about going to my local hardware store tomorrow and getting some flat stock aluminum and bending it to fit, drilling mounting holes and coating it in bedliner. then putting something rubbery on the inside, Its dumb how something so common is so hard to find.

I've got one in my garage. Too bad I still have the exhaust or I'd sell it to you.

That's almost exactly what I was thinking... minus the bedliner stuff.
$25 from 2bros doesn't sound too bad, either, though.

I did the same thing, it was fairly inexpensive, made for the exhaust, and didn't take long to receive. If you don't mind the cost, I'd recommend that route.

I made one today with 5 bucks, got some rubber self adhesive weather striping and put it on the back of some galvanized flat stock the same width of the old clamp, bent it to shape drilled some holes and bolted it up.

I like it better than the old one, has a tighter grip on the can but a softer inside so it wont scratch the carbon.
