We had to fabricate a bracket which uses 2 available bolt holes on the ADA head, then curls up and under the stinger bracket hole. drilled hole in the new bracket to match up with the one in the stinger pipe. Then found an old steering stabilizer type bushing to fit tightly inside both brackets to absorb all the vibration. Place a bolt thru the bushing & double nut it. Works fine. never comes loose. Pain in the *** though to have to make it in the first place. I did not know i would have to do this when I first bought the ADA head. Otherwise I would have purchased the Riva head which is plug & play with the stinger II. Good luck.

Someone was telling me that they have been running the Stinger@ without any support on the upper tube you are talking about. They even went as far as to remove the mounting tab on the Stinger2 to clean up the installation. I left the tab, but never did hook anything up to the Stinger2 on the top bracket. I don't have very many hours on it, but I did check it several times after a few runs and after riding for the day and it was exactly where I installed it. Works for me, but I am just Lucky like that.
