Default Removing Rear crash bars.....
I want to remove the rear crashbars from my standard to give it a cleaner look.

I'm assuming theres a bracket to keep the saddlebags held up from underneath but I cant seem to locate it.

Thanks,
Garrison

You need part 46565-04 which are saddlebag supports.

Part retails for $120 but you can get it at Zanotti for $94.

That was one of the first things I did too. IMHO it really cleans up the look of the bike

Make sure you put them on ebay. Last time I hit a deer, it bent mine. So I need cheap sources from guys like you who want to look pretty.

This thread is from 2006 but you need something like this:

The saddlebag support bar remains in place but it connects directly to the lower frame without the part that extends upward in front of the saddlebag itself.
