Default Sissy Bar
Hey ya'll. Does anybody have any suggestions for a taller black sissy bar for an 08 FXDB? I've looked on multiple sites for one that fits. I see plenty of threads on saddle bags (not sure if I'm ready for those, no longer rides for me yet) Got my learners permit yesterday!!! Can't wait to ride!

I have the HD sissy bar. Wasn't supposed to fit the thinner fender of the Street Bobs. I just went to my local hardware store, got some spacers and longer bolts and it now fits.

Cycle Visions "Cross-Tude" 18" Black sissy bar. The side plates are HD rigid mount and I painted them black.

Many aftermarket ones out there or just have one made up. They are not to high tech so I imagine any blacksmith could fashion one for you to your taste.

I wouldn't mind a taller one than the low boy I have, but it would need to be able to support a passenger.
