Help needed. Who makes that chain holder thingee for swingarms?

I've seen them before, i thought i saw one on the swingarm of an rc51... It's a little bracket with 3 teeth on it, and you set the chain on it when doing tire changes.... Anyone??? Bueller... Bueller?!?!!

I'm sorry, I promise I looked for awhile and that was the best I could come up with.

I know Spears racing makes them. There might be other manufacturers also.

Excellent, how would one of those look on a braced swingarm?

Man you could make your own with a dremmel and some aluminum stock. Maybe like 5 clams ish. Or even grind down an old sprocket or bicycle sprocket.

Looking at it I wonder why it wouldn't extend slightly past the end of the swingarm and sort of curvearound it. This would keep it off the swingarm itself. Thats how mine will be.
