I think the pro pipe if i remeber has clearance issues because of its straight pipe design while the sidewinder its angeled up a bit so your not scrapping the pipe on the ground while turning :pinch:

My fancy smancy s bracket looked so nice you couldnt even see it. then I couldnt even see my collector it was laying on the highway and gone before I could turn around and go get it! better change my new bracket used a steel bushing to make up the space.

No I had made an s bracket that is like the one going striaght down only I bent it
to match broke at the bend going out the highway

but had I been running non stop at highway speed for
several hours that day 70-90mph most of the day using a steel bushing between the mount now
I'm sure thats not much better but I will hopefully get a new pipe this winter
and remount everything correctly

Ahhight den. Put the factory rubber back in the bracket and mount it to that hole instead of the solid foot peg bracket hole. You'll be good to go then. ;)
