2023.5+ Grab Rails
Not sure if many of you install grab rails for your passengers on your bikes? It was pretty much a must for my wife to have something stable to hold on to at times when sitting back. The vinyl/leather strap just never really did it for her.
Unfortunately it doesn't look like anything is out just yet for the 2023.5+ Touring bikes. If any of you know of any that work, please post it up.
I did try to install the previous gen grab rails on the CVO to see if it would work, or if I could somehow make it work, but just couldn’t get it after several iterations. It was pretty close. Thought I almost had it.
They really only need to do slight alterations to their previous gen to make it work and I hope HD releases some.

I think the issue is mainly because of the two piece seat setup.
I wonder how different the two up seat from corbin would allow for the grab rails to be installed. I think it might.
If any of you have the new single piece dual tour seat from corbin could you take a picture of the mounting points underneath?

Corbin sent that pic over. Looks like the HD grab rails would work. No way of really knowing without trying.
This motorcycle R&D stuff gets expensive. Hah
When you do get your seat, it would be really helpful if you could take a top view of it installed and point to where the two screw posts for the stock rider seats are in relation to the corbin dual tour.

Will do. I talked to them today, supposed to ship today or tomorrow. On my 18 I remember removing the fender bolts. Even if they get pulled I'll mark it with tape and take pics with seat installed.
