Rootleib still has them listed in their catalog.
Maybe they have them in stock.

Speedsters are, in the most, custom builds. As such, the best fit may be a custom made item. It is not hard to make an aluminium wedge to suit your particular application.There is nothing quite like having a go at it.

I just fabricate and machine my own for a proper fit.
