| Subject: Anyone attempted a Sissy Bar on the SW? Sat Mar 08, 2014 3:13 am | |
| I have a 2004 Silverwing and am trying to work out how to and what type of mount needed to put a Sissy bar on the SW. There don't seem to be any made for it and Honda doesn't seem to have made many extras for the wing. I want to do some travel and would like to be able to attach a sissybar pack to it.

| Get a Givi Rack and box----rubber bags for passenger seat, Givi also has passenger back rest (really not good for tying anything to)hump" Bag---all this and keeping load low works and is safe.
Sissy bar would look funny on scooter and may be dangerous in moving tip over. I f you already have sissy bar pack-----strap/cord it on passenger seat---hope it is waterproof |

| If you mean is the backrest further back then the buttrest that comes on the stock seat, yes. Corbin is a custom seat manufacturer, and will create yours to your specs, so if you want more padding for a higher seat or less for a lower one they will accommodate you. The black bike at the top of the page is my bike. I'm short so I had the padding carved down. You can see more pics of my seat in the album linked in my sig.
Also custom colors and materials, and I believe heated too. You'll have to check with them. http://www.corbin.com/ Toll-Free Seven Days a Week: 800-538-7035 |
