Stop gap Sissy bar? 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
No money in the family budget right now for a better setup...wanted to get opinions on whether this Sissy bar might fit without drilling holes (and being too much of any eyesore) for now.

Thanks,

-=Mike

Hmmm... Doesn't look like it would be TOO hard to engineer... That's one of those "buy it and try it" things.

Going for the old school look? Just get you some square stock steel or round, cut it into two 30" or longer sticks and get some flat bar for the the brackets and weld it all together! It would be true old school! I used to have a 650vstar with a 30" stick on the back with gangsta wall tires and tall apes, I thought it was bad!

For a little bending/welding, that's a good looking old-school setup, R* B. The flip-flops on the other hand... .
