    Howdy fellow riders

    I am new to the forum, so would like to say hi to all first. I am from Sydney and  I got myself a harley sportster- 2012 superlow. I ride with a pillion so had to get the stock shocks changed to a progressive 13". Also got a sportster sundowner touring seat.

    Now, I am after a detachable sissy bar for my 2012 sportster and found it too expensive to get the genuiene part at the moment. I was wondering if anyone could ge me any advise on the below link. I found it on e-bay and they are called Cavalry customs (USA). Just wanted to check if anyone has bought the same product off them. If so, how is it on the bike and how about the quality.  I assume they must be farely tall. (21" assembled height)

    Any sort of advise in finding out a good sissy bar for the bike would be appriciated.

     

    Thanks Guys,

    Enjoy the ride

    the genuine 60's style sissy bar looks great,will cost you between 200 and 230 (depending on who you talk to at Peter Stevens and which store you go to )
    then add another 70 million or so bux for the back rest pad .

    hope this helps

    Thanks 48fan,

     

    Thank you for the info. I did take a look at the 60's. They look good. However, i was after one which I could take off (detacable) when I am riding solo.

    I was able to find another advt. on ebay . They are specifying the exact product code as Harley. I have ordered one anyway as it is only half the price and it comes with a luggage rack too.

    Will say how it is on the bike as I fit it on. Hope it fits.
