Anyone heading to Biketoberfest in Daytona Oct 16-19? Checked the EBR stand at the Daytona 200 out and it was pretty cool, they were stoked to see a clean old S1W and had me park it right up front. I'd be keen to meet up with any Buellers

I ordered one of these about 2 months ago. Nice set up. My only complaint is that I had to re machine it a bit to where the locking mechanism actually engage. But overall a good product!

I saw this on ebay a while back and was wondering how well it worked. Guess at least you won't have to worry about the plastic swelling issue. : )

Yeah, I will be there, just not sure when/time/day. We live about 30 miles away.

I actually found the original manufacturer for the plastic type OEM in Florida still sells them $35.00 each, these guys actually make components for the petroleum industry. I bought two last year, looking for contact info to post if anyone is interested, Cheers

The guy that makes the aluminum ones is a machinist the first ones fit my m2 fine but not the s2. He took the cap from my s2 and made a new part. His part should fit most tubes now
