Thanks for the picture from 650ed.

Would be tempted to find some aluminum or copper rod stock of the correct diameter (to nest inside the clamp recess -- if there is a clamp recess), and fabricate some half-circle collars.

Maybe slicing a new exhaust gasket in half.

Good Fortune! :)

Should fit. You may have to fine tune the hangar bracket that hooks on the rear foot peg.

Was thinking of cutting a new exhaust gasket in half to possibly suffice in lieu of the regular collars.
