| | Posted : 30 Apr 2015 - 16:02 Post title : Anyone use this or other Aftermarket armrests for sissy bar | | | Would like to find something or maybe even fab something for the wife for longer trips on the bike. I found a couple sources, one set pretty pricey but made for our bike and seem decent and simple enough. Anyone use these or no of others, or have idea's?

| | Posted : 30 Apr 2015 - 21:46 Post title : Re: Anyone use this or other Aftermarket armrests for sissy bar (Re: edmontonstorm) | | | I know. My wife likes the Triumph better than my Victory Cross Country because she said the seat and backrest are more comfortable. Now she is pushing me to sell both and buy a Victory Cross Country Tour after test riding one with me. I told her I would upgrade the Cross Country, but not sell the Triumph. She likes the heated seat option and wrap around backrest on the tour.

that new magnum is a nice bike thats for sure, i frankly like my storm and honestly can't afford the magnum so i do what i can. The sissy bar goes on now and again for the odd scoot with the Mrs, and once a year a couple k tour, so if i can make her (keep her) happy LOL than i do what i can.
I am going to a good place right?

| | Posted : 01 May 2015 - 11:32 Post title : Re: Anyone use this or other Aftermarket armrests for sissy bar (Re: edmontonstorm) | | | What about one of these? Either a) fab some posts/bracket using the existing QR sissy bar bracket, or b) make up a new mount plate with it's own notches to the existing studs for the fender bolts/mounts?
Link I've been toying with this idea for some time, but got way too many projects going on (like finishing my boat restoration before Memorial Day)!!
