The blue and black color combination look great together. Great job.

Hi again ,

Does the plug n play sissy bar com off quickly for when you want the minimalist look?

Does it affect the seat mounting at all?

If my memory serves me well, I seem to remember someone on this forumn sayingthat it marked the fender paint - how's it been with your?

Sorry to interrogate you on this - Im reseaching options for a rack fitment on my 06 fatboy and dont want to pay silly HD prices if I can help it.(ÂŁ480 for a detachable set up here in the uk)

I would send an e-mail to Zenotti's;

https://www.zanottimotor.com/shopping/partLookUp.html

They have about the best pricing for HD parts I have seen so far. Maybe they can ship them to youand still becheaper than the local stealers.

Its worth a shot, ya got nothing to loose.

It's so easy spending $$$ on these things, and even easier to spend someone elses.......
If you ever want to upgrade the Thunderstar cast wheels, these new billet wheels from Forge-Tec fit your theme and paint set perfect. If I had your paint set, thesewould bea "gotta have" item...
They come in black powdercoat if all black is your thing..

The backrest is held on by the seat screw and one other screw. I can have it off and on in a few minutes. The backrest has a rubber backing to it. I can seeing it leaving a mark where it sits on the paint (I have the little 3m piece on most of the fender where it sits, but there is a small area where the rubber is directly on the fender). I plan on putting a small piece of microfiber cloth in between it and the fender. It does make the seat sit a little higher (just the width of the bracket which is about 1/4" thick.)


George - Those wheels do look sick. Just not in the budget for now, I figure with pulleys, etc, they have to be at least $2000 - $2500. I'll have to stick with my thunderstars for now. Wish I had a 200 tire, or I'd probably be all over them.
