I just received the 24" and the quality is amazing! Looks like the same one jacoblb has(nice looking bike)... There is a pic of mine still in the wrapper I took just today posted under new toys. honey_badger and trained killa both have pics of rad sissy bars which convinced me to go all in. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-...pist-apes.html Like the two of the I opted for Carlini Pist Apes and am super pleased!

Just email Steve about making a custom bar to match the pattern and thickness of my Roland Sands black ops ape. I'll keep you all updated.



Jacoblb... Sick bike bro!! Custom exhaust? Dig it.

I bought one the other day. Anxiously awaiting its arrival. I wanted gloss black to match with my bars but his auction was for matte black. He offered to do mine in gloss. Stoked.

I'm pretty excited to see it. I got it in the semi gloss which luckily matched my bars. But I kinda wish I'd gotten them both in gloss. Just to match the rest of the gloss black on the bike. I'm already swapping out my 7" headlight for another 7". The drag specialties one is crooked so I got a softail bucket and frenched trim ring which I plan to powder to match the paint scheme.

Got my 24" Bowman Welding sissy bar installed yesterday--took me about 40 minutes by myself. Lifted the bike, dropped the rear end by pulling the lower shock bolts so I could access the turn signal bolts. They include easy to follow instructions. I used the "put some dish soap on on the fender/inside plates of the sissy bar for lube" idea and it worked great. Extremely high quality built! Very pleased.
