Default New apes, thinking about a sissy bar....

Went back to apes after a couple of years. Had a buddy of mine make me a set of 15's in stainless steel with the center section to match up to the WG trees. Was running tracker bars for awhile, forgot how much i liked the apes. Kids are a little older so find myself travelling a little bit further now so need storage for gear. I dont have fender struts anymore so need to build something to weld up in the rear to the fender set up. Photoshopped a half *** idea of what id like to make. Never have a passenger nor will I, anyone else got a sissy that doesnt come off? Any issues?

While that is a "bit" over the top....i remember why I come here. Maybe 1" x 1/4" with lightening holes. Would be rigid as hell. Yet another idea to rattle around. Thanks IC.
