Hi All,

Asking for advice:

I'm looking to replace this broken dragon bracket but it is not like the currently available options, which seem to be two piece models. This one is a one piece model with the dragon being welded to the mounting plate. Anyone know the model # for this version and/or if it is still available. Or is there where a learn replacements are as hard to find than an honest politician in Washington DC? This is for a 1978 Vigilant TIA

Thanks! But not the same dragon.

Seems there are two diffent designs. the two peice, which is common and easy to replace. And th one peice, which is a slighty larger dragon, and not very common. This is what an in tact dragon bracket looks like:

Can you get the broken mounting plate piece welded back together? Looks like a straightforward fix?
