I like 'em. Balances out the handlebars and gives the bike length.

Thanks.

I got mine off of Ebay for $130.00. It was cheaper than the dealer and was in great shape. There's on on there now that is starting at $125.00 but the auction is like 6 more days. The part number is 52729-08. Just do some searching and I'm sure you'll find one pretty cheap.

Hey man. Just found one for you in the classifides section here for 175 shipped. That's a heck of a deal! Includes everything you need (docking hardware kit and turn signal relocation kit). You don't really need the relocation kit. If you have a dremel you can cut the sissy bar to fit. Only took me five minutes and only had to cut off about a half inch on each side. Here's the link:

I've got a 20" on mine that the ol loves. It doesn't look too bad with apes.

I think the lines of your bike look great as it is. A sissy bar would take from the overall look of your bike, but it might be useful to have a detachable one for lugging gear.
