Taller Sissy Bar upright for Breakout?
I'm looking for any Company that makes a slip-in replacement taller Sissy-bar that fits the detachable HD bar mounts. The only one HD sells is too damned short for attaching anything to. If anyone knows of a Company that would make or bend one to fit, please let me know. I'm looking for the standard height you used to be able to get for HDs. Obviously the 240 tire on the Breakout requires a wider spacing. Thanks!

Were you able to find what you were looking for? I too would like to find a sissy bar upright that's taller but fits the detachable side plates I already have. I know the general shape I want and hopefully can get it bent backwards a few inches to provide a bit more room. But it's hard enough to find any taller bars at all.

There's really nothing made out there to fit the detachable HD side plates except the HD low bar. I drew up what I wanted, but let it slide. It might be possible to take a tall bar for one of the other HDs and re-bend it for the BO, but you'd have to go out to 13" on centers to fit the side plates, and the bending would weaken the bar unless you tempered it again.
