Zip ties have always worked wonders for me...

Racerd,
I'm not sure what you really need here but if you want to go simple try McMaster Carr. They have lots of clamps. Go to this link where they have them over 3" ID with rubber or vinyl padding. Clamps at McMaster Carr I build everything from this catalog. The Omni Clamp was pretty high tech so I don't know what you are shooting for here. Kevin -------------------- Rotortech

its time to get away from the zip ties, cus this bike is getting turned into a true street fighter thats got cheap hand made parts and looks good in the process. im looking for a clamp to mount the bottle with out covering up the paint job, il give you a little preview of the theme il do up a build thread once i start diggin into it but right now im only doing a couple small projects
   the more i think about it i wana mount it at the neck but it flares from 34.3mm to 36.5mm and the clamp would have to extend out 30 mm to clear the body of the bottle. i thought about making a cradle kinda like the ones they use for nitrous bottles but id rater do somthing clean and simple -------------------- Yamaha Certified Technician

i paid $1.99 for the bottle at walmart on clearance and maybe $3 or $4 for paint and i found something that im gonna try to mod it to make work as a clamp/mount for $2.43 shipped so total investment is less than $7 and a few hours of my time so im not complaining, plus i wanna make every part i can so no one can go oh yeah i got one of those on my bike lol
