Default attaching a crossbones sissy bar help!

So I bought a sissy bar from someone on this forum for my crossbones, it didn't come with any docking hardware and it seems like it is too wide. Do I need to buy mounting plates or anything like that for the bike?
this is the bar

Thanks!

Looks like you need the docking hardware too.

There is a link to the .pdf of how to install on the page in the online catalog

I am probably an idiot, but i can only find the part number for the turn signal re locator, do I need that and the docking? Thanks, this is driving me nuts!

That I don't know, don't have the sissy bar or docking kit. Someone else will know. As for the turn signal relocation, if I recall correctly a short session with a dremel to cut a bit of the locking mechanism should make it possible to use without relocation kit.

If its the quick release bar then you are gonna need the docking hardware to go with it. WITCH SHOULD HAVE BEEN PROVIDED WITH THE BAR ! Who did you buy it from ?

It is the quick release bar. Let me check with him before I throw him under the bus.

Hi, the docking part numbers are in the printed catalog (you can download it from the main site)

here is a screen shot of the page. Looks like you need 53932-03A

Here is link to them on the HD site: http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US

for all of the detachable sissy bars the docking hardware and a turn signal relocation kit are required. those parts on not included as part of the one piece kits. When I put my sissy bar on I didn't have to purchase a relocation kit because I had already moved the turn signals to my laydown license plate
