Sissy Bar Options??? I need help!!

[kylec250]

I just got my first Big Dog, its an 03 Mastiff. I want a sissy bar but i cant pay 700.00 for the struts/mounts. Are there any other options or aftermarket brackets???

I had one custom made by Eric of choppin steel in Michigan it bolts to the struts with just a little drilling & tapping he could make any design you want the cost after chroming will run you a little more than half of the 700.00 & it will look a 1,000 times better:up:

So you didn't get the BDM struts? Lets see how that worked out...

Best option in my opinion is to go with the Daytec system. Very clean and an easy install. I've posted it on here several times, you can do a search for Daytec and find it or just go to the Daytec website.

Gas, sissybar struts were not an option in 03!!

Yeah Ray but I want to see how they did it...

I have told Dave many times, that if he took his bike to Eric, I'm sure Eric could think up somin to put a sissy bar on the stock, no holes, struts!

their is a set of side plates for a sissy bar for older dogs on ebay, going for 20 bucks. Just need to build a bar. My need to drill a tap your struts if they bolt the fender from inside. If its from the out side you will need the adapters to make it fit your bolts.
