Default Sissy bar question
Does anyone have any pics of a touring bike with a chrome sissy bar of some type without a pad on it? I never have a passenger so no need for the pad and don’t really like the looks of the big pad. Sissy bar would come in handy tying stuff to. Curious if there are any other options. Thanks.

I'd suggest buying the bar of your choice and not installing the backrest , that's what I did. Only use it on trips though.
