Is There a Grab Rail Out There?
You could say that I got the idea from looking at the newest bike in the Icon series: the Hydra Glide Revival. I really like the seat "grab rail". It adds a nice finishing touch to the seat. That look has been around forever on vintage and not so vintage (Softail Deluxe) models of HD over the years. Does anyone have any ideas on where i might find one to fit an M8 Softail Heritage (2023)?

A buddy of mine bought a police Road King and wanted the seat rail from the previous "icon" Electra Glide. He had a devil of a time getting someone to sell him one as Harley-Davidson considered it a "restricted" part-they would only sell it as a replacement part to a bona fide owner of that bike. I suspect much the same will apply to the seat rail on the "Hydra-Glide." Too bad, because I'd like to have the front fender badges for my Heritage, and they're probably "restricted" as well. Yes, I know there are reproduction badges out there, but I don't know if they'll fit the hole spacing in the modern fenders.

That's just about as bad as being restricted. Sheesh.

Ouch! It does really look great on the seat.
