I was quite tempted to do this actually.

Half-wits do only do u-bolts for exhausts no smaller than 3" I think (at least when I last looked) - I've tried wickes but not B&Q yet, may try them tonight.

1" is 25mm right? I wanted a tight fitting one really so may end up making them.

Tomtom's fitting kits are really crap, thats why I've resorted to making one! The tomtom rider would fit really snuggly between the two risers.
