For those who didn’t know. I did end up making a batch of steering damper mounts to sell and I will continue to make them as long as there is a demand for them. I made a couple changes to the mounts I’m selling to improve clearance and appearance.
Here’s some updated pictures.

Awesome job Bryan468! Powder coat the brackets black and it would look stock.

Thanks, I plan to powder coat or anodize them over the winter. I will have some bar riser plates to do as well.

Wow, you guys are so talented it's ridiculous. I could never even conceive...... We all benefit from you all's ingenuity.
Good luck with the handlebar risers, that will be challenging.

Well I would give most of the credit to cooter and his buddy on this one. If it wasn’t for them doing it I never would have tried it. It was a challenge though... I spent about 5 days working off and on on this project!
Thanks... I’m about to start working on them now. Worst case... if I can’t get away with 1/2” I will just mill the bar spacers down to 10mm since we know that will work.

Impressive work, Bryan. Thanks for the step by step, not that I could do it, but it's nice to see the whole process.
As for handlebar risers, I have the Beet 10mm risers (and like them). Personally, I don't think I'd want anything higher as the controls would begin to contact the fairing at the steering stops.

Thanks, ya I didn’t expect many people to be able to make these mounts. I figured some would find it interesting to see the process and finished product though.
I currently have one side done for the bar risers. There are some limiting factors that I will post about when I’m all done but I was able to clamp the bars down at about .590” and move them full lock to lock with no problems.
I prefer my levers to be relatively close to the angle of my arms in the riding position so I don’t have to bend my wrist to much to grab the brake or clutch lever so that helped with clearance.
