Cross Bones Sissy Bar
I see everyone is pretty much installing the same sissy bar on their Cross Bones. Has anyone tried something different than the quick detach?
I put the Brawler solo and pillion on mine because the stock seat was too high for me. I am now looking for a backrest for my wife. Do you think the detach sissy bar would look good with this setup or should I try for the more traditional look? I am interested in your thoughts. Thanks.

RE: Cross Bones Sissy Bar
Hey, I really like the brawler seat on the bones. Its sharp!!! Im looking for a stationary sissy bar, not happy with the extra hardware with the currant detachable version.
I saw the twisted bar (sissybar style) from HD, and that was freakin nice, its chromedand really heavy duty... it would be stationary not the detachable set up.... Thinking it would be really nice powdercoated, but I hate to fork over cash for something done so nice in chrome.
I have not seen anything in after market that is black??!! still lookin.... For now its the xbones detachable.

I like the look of the XBones SB, but the wife hates it because it leans so far back and the pad is so small. She is used to sitting more upright and having a taller pad, which is almost impossible on the XBones SB. I think probably the twisted chrome HD one powdercoated black with a decent backrest would be a better choice.

tnharley hit it on the head...the wife feels like shes laying back too far...the xbones detatchable is no good for the passenger. it looks sweet, but no functional. BTW, how is the comfort of the passenger pillon for the wife on the brawler.
