Default Mocked up some sissy bars
just playing around with some options and thought id share. comments/suggestions welcome. feel free to post what you got so i can steal some ideas.

right now they are made to fit the stock side plates. not sure yet if i will keep them this way or weld on some tab and mount it differently. if i use the side plates, will probably cut some of the excess metal.

spade is a card cover that i had made for when im playing poker. am trying to find a way to mount it so i can remove it easily and let it serve dual purpose. but who know, maybe i will just get another one made.

sorry, no fancy bending tools or jigs. just good ole bends around a hitch ball and attached to board with zip ties before tacking.

I dig the first one. And sure, why not make a second spade?

Are ace of spades ones made with re-bar? Think I prefer first pic, but would look better in round bar.
