Sissy bar

(1/2) > >>

Ashdowner:
My girlfriend has led a life of far too much luxury and is now asking if she can have a backrest for my 550 K3. Does anyone know if you can get universal type sissy bars that fit onto universal type luggage racks?

Green1:
Yep its called a top box.  ;)

Ashdowner:
Hmmmmm. The top box doesn't have a flat back to rest on or mount a pad on.

deltarider:
Try to convince her to lean forward. Nice feeling for you and the handling of your bike will not be affected at higher speeds when riding solo.

HI,

If there is no alternative you could try this, even though it is pretty vile to my eye at least.

The seller is D and K, they often have...shall we say unusual seats and things taken off their US imports.  What were Americans thinking of in the 70s and 80s !

This for example, imagine it on your otherwise standard bike as you cruise down to the coast on the A22  :)
