What is this sissy bar?

I've seen these before, but for the life of me can't remember who makes them. It's the only sissy bar I wanna put on my scoot, I don't want side rails... I saw this one on Craigslist, and I contacted the owner, but he was kind of a jerk about it.

That is the factory Deuce sissy bar and pad. Looks like he had that and the seat recovered, but it is the stock setup. It mounts directly to the rear fender instead of the fender struts in a traditional Softail setup.

Here is one I made for my deuce. I wanted more of the old school look without the side rails. No real off the shelf options for the deuce except the stock one.

I have a Standard. I just don't want side rails. I thought there was a company that made under-seat mount sissy bars...?

You should be able.to make it work. You will have to drill 3 holes in the fender though. It has a plate that goes on the top and bottom of the fender and then the backrest bolts to that.
I had installed one on my 2007Suzuki Intruder and worked well.
