simple and effective
any attempt to follow a different angle is going to put stress on something.
it fits in with the rest of the fab work.
all exhaust brackets are some sort of compromise in looks or function.
i would rather sacrifice a lil on the looks than the function.
that duck sport classic front fender mounts match your exhaust mount very nicely.
i think with a side shot we could see how the two(front fender mount,rear exhaust hanger)tie together a little better.
you gotta live with it tho,and if it is poking you in the eye :whistle: .
i can't wait to see what you do.
keep us posted,

The C-clamp could be located further forward from the location portrayed in the pic.

Also 531blackbanshee was spot on with the location as far as function , for ground clearance the exhaust is pulled up on the hanger pretty hard so I located the hanger directly above the mount to reduce stress .
bluezbike : decided not to add the passenger pegs due to the location of the rear set
