    Those plates linked are clever with the routing behind to link & the two holes. That's where the cost is. A flat plate with a chain drilled hole is all you need though... fit with RTV.
    I had some seepage issues so I also helicoiled the block of plate bolts so I could cinch them down better with SS hex bolts (an used anti-seize)

      looks like they've changed their name, in St Catherines , ( CDN $ )

      the plates are high quality with oring seals. no leaks in 10 years

        I would think that using some kind of thread sealer on the bolts (or even more RTV) would probably be a good idea without the O-rings too.. I probably did that, so long ago I don't remember now.....

        Whatever I did, I did the same think on the GSXR forks that I had fitted to the 750 & that worked fine too.

        Mine have been fitted for several years without issues.
