Bruce Riley, Twisted Steel Fabrication, made my sissy bar. Not sure if he's still making them or not.

I was looking for one for my '13 Blackline but without relocating the lights, there's not one or so it seems. So I'm going to go with a Haulen *** pad. I just wanted it to keep my wife from sliding off.

I may be interested in selling mine. In a bit of a pickle with my bike and the dealer. I'll know in a week or two if I am or not. I just posted mine up if you want to look at it. Something to think about if you want a custom one.

Go spend an hour or 2 at your local blacksmith's. You will get EXACTLY what you want and meet one of the neater dudes in your area. You can do a simple bar pretty cheap. I like putting myself in front of different people for weird reasons. Makes for better memories. I make alot of my own stuff for the bike, too.



BTW, some blacksmiths barter.

Most blacksmiths enjoy beer.

All blacksmiths dig cashola.
