I have a plate mount that goes on the battery box for when I get back to the states...it was either that or the swing arm mount...

i dunno about you guys, but personally ithink the swingarm mounts are ugly as hell. I like them tucked under the seat. It gives teh bike better lines from the side in my opinion. *shrugs*

mostly a 'Busa thing but i almost did it until I found the battery box mount...the Leo is too sexy to cover with the erector set mount that came with it...

what i did with mine was bore out the right side mounting hole on the liscence plate. I took off my right passenger peg, and then bent my plate to wrap around so I could bolt the plate on using the passenger peg... it came out pretty good...

check out how i did my plate mount. the top holes are going to have those led light in bolt plate lights when they get here but the rest of the mount is self explanitory, just put longer bolts in the stock location, added a fender washer a lock nut and chopped up a piece of scrap stainless i had from another project. i added holes in the back of it so i can call it a "race" style plate mount.
