No joy, the one I found must have been for a non harley and the mounts were twisted.

Measure the distance to the *insides* of the square holes one would fit in. I *may* have a tall sissy bar you can have for the shipping cost. I'll try to get some pictures of the one I have. If it's what I think it is, it will be the old school type where you need a mount on the insides of the arc that uses two bolts instead of a plate that something screws on (the 'newer' types just don't look good IMO). Here's some pictures. If you can't get the broken bolt out of that hole, you're going to have to drill it and tap it to the next barely bigger size. I snapped that bolt trying to get it out after I'd bought the bar for my FXD. It was solidly rusted in there and nothing I had or did would get it loose, and of course trying so hard to unscrew it it broke. It isn't 'new', but hey, trying to find a sissy bar for these bikes that isn't chinee and is actually made for the bike, is getting harder and harder each year. Holler at me if you're interested.
