Default New pics with the new sissy bar

I have attached a couple of updated pictures with the freshly installed sissy bar. Still a few more items to go on the bike yet - Nash Midget Gimps, but she is almost there.

I have to give props to bmxatv and his buddy for getting the sissy bar made up, and I am more than pleased with it. I think it sets the bike off great and it is nice and low, just how I wanted it to look. The work on the bar is top notch and could not have asked for a better build and interaction. Would highly recommend anyone looking for a great option of no mounting plates if you dislike the look of them

Let me know what you think...

Thanks, yes it was custom fabricated. I sent a rough picture on over and he pretty much fabricated it from there - looks just like the picture.

I don't know where he got his... But, you can order them from HD parts catelog, I think they were called tire markers or paint markers. There is one white and one orange. I thought about it myself.

UKNightster - Bike looks awesome!

I got the stripes off Ebay, they were cheap and came pre curved so they were pretty easy to install - just do a search under "Vinyl Wheel Stripes" and you should find the vendor. I don't remember the name off the top of my head though.

Thanks for the compliments
