ok, heres what i did..... I removed the stock bolts going through the top of the shock and supporting the exhasut and replaced them with some stainless hardware from ACE (grade 8, and a Flat head...) I then drilled and tapped into them so they would accept an M6x25 bolt. I then used some clamps that i had to clamp to the frame and ran a longer bolt from the rear mounting hole of the passanger rearset through the clamp, using a piece of pipe as a spacer. I used stainless hardware (but not pipe...doh!) and made sure to use Nyloc nuts so nothing would rattle loose. So far, i have about 2k miles, and no problem on this setup and i DON'T take it easy on my bike! Let me know what you think.
