April 2, 201610 yr Hi all, I now have a Mitani plate, (I was going for the H&D after feeling the quality of it last time and the reviews on here, but they are out of stock). The Mitani is a good quality plate, nicely finished. I don't think it is as heavy as the H&D, from memory, but it fits better. The front of the H&D plate was about 10mm too far forward of the frame, which is why I returned it and asked my original question, plus the rear holes didn't line up too well. This Mitani fits straight up. My question now... What do you use to fix the rubber pads onto the metal plate? Which Mitani one - there seems to be a few & how many euro's

April 3, 201610 yr Author Which Mitani one - there seems to be a few and how many euro's I didn't realise there was a choice! I bought the one from H&D racing, which they are stocking whilst waiting for their own plate to be available. Cost £150. I hope it IS better than the standard plate! It is slightly wider and much longer so it protects the bottom of the footrest hangers and helps to protect the rear shock linkage. Both of which have received damage on my bike.
