Default streetbobs and sissybars

Heres my bowman bar, the only thing i had trouble with there is a strap with weldnuts on either side that have sleeves to go through the fender and struts to help align and support the fender, after insatlling the sissy bar and the licwnse plate bracket my sleeves do not go all the through. I havent had any problem but it does take away some support.

What size bars do u have? I have been in a debate on how TH would look with the style I'm going for, it actually doesn't look bad at all!

nice! I have 14 narrows and was thinking of getting the shorter bowmans at least tall enough for a bag to fit... anyone have pics of this setup

Yeah, it's the stock bracket. It really sticks out on mine too. The angle of that picture makes it look better than it is.

I had a 24" sissy bar fabbed and welded to luggage rack. The pillion seat still snaps onto the rack when my daughter wants to ride.

I have a 24 inch Bowman on my Street Bob.

I put a Sundowner 2 Up seat on when my girlfriend rides...no issues.
