I decided that I didn't like the Honda sissy bar for our valk. So, I decided to make my own to what I would like. I took my cousin's sissy bar from his Victory Cross Country as inspiration. I found that the Honda one stuck up too far, and I just needed something to hold my wife on the bike the odd time she rides with me, and be able to remove it when not needed.
I had most of the stuff here, I only just had to buy the 3/4" square tube. I even had the backrest pad from another project. The great thing is that it came out perfect the first time. Fits my wife great.
