I know that Buddha made them but I don't know if he still has any left.
You may have to fab one up yourself.

This is a 4 bolt isn't it. I never made those ... You can in a pinch take a square flat plate and drill holes to match and blow a 2 inch hole in the middle with a torch ...
I made my first 1-2 lots this way ... beautiful, I did offset and what ever ... it was so cool those, the fit like nothing else, the second was that way too ... but after that I made laser cut plates ... didn't work as well ... the hand fitted things were so tight to the bike. But ... yea, flat plate and blow a hole and drill bolt holes and you're good.
Cool.
Buddha.
