Default New Sissy Bar

About two weeks ago I added a new sissy bar to my Nightster. I think it looks bad *** and my woman thinks its SUPER comfy!!! Looks sharp with the passenger pillion and a plus as far as passenger comfort goes. Figure I would post some pics for those curious about the look of it, enjoy!

By the way, part numbers are as follows for those interested:
HD Sissy Bar = 51146-10
Backrest Pad = 52631-07





Next on my hit list is 12" Apes, turn signal relocate and a fork brace.

Thanks for the compliments! No, I haven't got any pics of it stripped down. If I get around to it I'll see if I can snap a few though.

I'm thinking when I get my 12" apes it'll balance out to look of the bike alot better with the sissy bar rather than having the stock bars.

awesome - looks good. I've been planning on getting that so I can attach a bag for road trips. Would love to see it w/o the pad.

Ha, thanks! I'm actually going to get a set of the RSD Vintage 12". I like em because they are narrow and will give a sweet look to the flow of the bike. The other plus is that they have the "buck-shot" look to them with the holes that will go nice with the sissy bar, belt guard and RSD fork brace (comming).
