Default Sissy Bar without Tail Light Relocation

Anyone know of a sissy bar with pad I can buy that mounts through the fender seat bolt or the front fender bolts, so I don't have to relocate my tail lights?

Get the switchback sissy bar mounts and the side plate. All you have to do is drill a hole where the wires come through

Not sure the letter designation for your bike. These might fit:

Mines from slim fab customs. No need to relocate as they fit between the rails and fender. Could easily fab a pad your self if you wanted one. Think they're running at about a buck fourty.

I went with this one. Local company in Houston, picking it up and installing it Friday on the first leg of my trip.

$150, in denim black to match my bike.

I just installed this on my FXDB. Had to powder coat it to get rid of the chrome but installing was a breeze. No need to relocate anything, bolts right up to the fender with our having to drill any holes. Build quality is good. the mounting plate is burly and the pad is perfect for the wife.

Check my trip report I just posted. I picked up a bolt on one piece bar/mount in denim black from Bowman Welding in Houston. I included a link to their eBay page. Great guys and company, and only $150.
