I found an awesome deal for a wide glide sissy with pad and I just wanted to know how your passengers liked them, I tried doing a google search on review for the sissy and I have nothing so please feel free to chime in

I have one on my super glide and my girlfriend refuses to go long distances without it on. Its a 15" and know she wishes it was a little taller because my "touring" seat sits pretty high and the sissy bar only comes up slightly above the small of her back.

My wife likes ours. It's the taller model with the Dyna Touring backrest.

I'm not sure what size the stock wide glide sissy bar is but that's what I'm looking in to getting for my better half, it also comes with the bar pad which I think should help with support

My daughter prefers to have the sissy bar on when I take her for rides.

Forgot to mention mine also has a pad. Its not the touring one, but definitely more comfortable than just the bar itself

It'll fit, notch the rear holes to make it a quick detach over the turn signal wires.
