Don't know about vibration but the sissy bar looks good. So does losing the reflectors. As far as the badlander goes I have that on my bike and it puts my butt to sleep after about 45 mins. I'm getting ready to change it out for a Mustang.
yea I basically just threw the sissy bar on for looks. Yes it does vibrate terribly. I just thought it looked cool. Reminded me of Peter Fonda in easy rider (corny I know)
I hear ya, just watched easy rider the other day, always thought captain america bike was cool, it even looks comfortable when they are cruising down the highway leaning back.
the Sissy bar is from cycle visions, the side plates are the HD detachable. I plan on lowering the headlamp. Honestly just having a hard time spending the $100 for the RSD bracket lol. I do have a passenger sometimes, but she never ever leans back...
I guess I don't understand that type of sissy bar, seems unuseable, it would vibrate badly, and be very uncomfortable for the passenger. Is it just for looks?
Not only does it look good IMO, I strap a backpack on mine for overnight trips.
