I bought mine three years ago with HDL parts, but I cannot find it on their web site now.
I think it is RIVCO.

PS. I hope to have an answer to you tomorrow regarding your email about the Tankard.

I contacted Rivco a short time ago to ask whether the VTX  :cooldude:pad would fit a Valk. I was told they are different. I asked if the sidestand could be ground down to fit. They said they don't reccommend modifications (legal dept. at work) but that "if you're good at that sort of thing you could try it". I haven't but I'd sure like to know how you make out.  cooldude

They are not that much different.  Before they made one for the 18 VTX I installed a valk foot on my wifes X with minimal effort.  I altered the foot by cutting about 1/2 in off the top slide at the rear.

   If you ride twisties moderately aggressively with the side stand extention installed you will notice it drags the pavement rather easily and sends out a pretty shower of sparks as well as limiting your left bank angle which in some cases could be hazardous to your health when you need to get it down, especially when your in the front six bikes trying to keep up with Hi Binder who is at the front of the pack ! In this case, 'ya really 'gotta dig baby ! I LOVVIT !  ...I may remove mine unless I grind it down on the side to the point it clears... Grin Skeeter (VA)

Thanks, but I'm looking not for me just for a customer. He has rear shocks half inch longer than stock and is not a realy good rider. He starts biking after his retirement one year ago and is still learning.
If somebody know where I get some new, would be nice.
