If they're square in section, they also used them on the 500.

Bitsa they use the angled brackets on the cb550 also, I read somewhere that it was a US regulation that they must flick backwards if they catch on anything.

Just measured them up against my other bike and what you say makes sense.When they hit the deck they fold back where as the others will bend or jerk the rear end.
