Custom Sissy bar
Guys... Ive been looking to get a small sissy bar for my 07 streetbob with the lepera barebones seat and pillian.... I REALLY like the 2010 and 2011 wide glide sissy bar... nice gloss black powercoating and round bar but from what I see it does not fit on the 07 SB. I have taken the strut covers off so the black struts are exposed....
Anyone know of anyone who could make me a sissy bar and a way to mount it? looking at the WG sissy bar and the pillian that comes stock with the bike the top of the sissy bar seem to be about 3-4 inches above the top of the seat... well ofcourse the barebones pillian is much lower that stock so this new "custom" sissy bar would then need to be lower to keep the same look.... Thanks for any advice...

The HD sissy bar that I have on my bike wasn't supposed to fit my SB either. I just went to a local hardware store, bought some chrome washers and longer bolts. I put the mounting hardware on the outside of the washers and VIOLA...it fits!

Tonyt, I really like the look of that sissy bar. I have a SB also. I was thinking of ordering the bar, and trying to adapt it to my SB. Did you use SB relocation kit, mounting hardware, and how much gap is there to fill?

I like the looks of that sissy bar, alot! I want to modify the rear fender of my 03 FXDWG and that type of sissy bar is on my list of stuff to do at the same time. What's the part number and do you think it would fit on my FXDWG. If it won't fit I may be able to do the same thing you did.

sissy bar
I dont know what kind of tools you have but I built mine with an oxy acetylene torch, Drill, Dremel, Tig welder, small section of steel sheetmetal and about 4 feet of hex stock.
