sissy bar setup help
I want the old school look on my 2008 street bob with sissy bar that is somewhat tall. I want it to be about as tall as my bars which are 14" r6c. A little taller or little shorter woukd be fine. The problem is when I called harley they quoted me $500 for sissy bar and luggage rack and said for my bike that is only option. I find that hard to believe. The sissy bar wont come off but luggage rack will so don't need quick detatch and doesn't necessarily have to be harley brand. Can anyone help? Thanks

+1 on Bowman or the other Ebay bar. Both are great from what I hear. Planning on getting a stainless steel Bowman myself soon.

to the op...I can't figure out how to post an image, sorry. The one that I have is a harley one-piece detachable tall sissy bar with passenger pad. If you want to get an idea what it looks like, go to the harley site, sissy bar part # is 52300044, backrest part # is 52631-07

You mean this one?
Got the whole kit from Surdyke. Did forget the turn signal kit though, gonna make my own.
FWIW, I went this route, as I'm not really a fan of the sissy bar. It really doesn't look bad, and it may not come off as much as I thought.
