Grab rails - ideas? (Read 92 times)

fretman Junior Member Offline '07 S40 Posts: 62 Brooklyn, NYC Gender:	Grab rails - ideas? 07/16/09 at 23:20:04 I'd like to put a pair of nice passenger grab rails on my S40. I was most impressed with the ones on the Suzuki Burgman Scooter, but the footprint is probably way too big. Has anyone here added grab rails to a Savage, and/or have any ideas on what I might use?

How about a couple of kitchen drawer pulls, mounted into the chrome fender supports?....

Wow, tough crowd! Cheesy

My main passenger is my daughter. She's 10. Holding me is hard for her, cuz she's small, and it's uncomfortable for her, her head smashed into my back, can't see anything, etc...

*I* rode passenger on my S40 once, and it wasn't fun. I rode passenger on a Burgman, and it was pretty nice, comparatively. The grab rails were implemented really well.

I thought about that, and I may try it. Was hoping for something a little more industrial strength and size though. Just searching on "grab rails" in ebay turned up some prospects. I've also got saddle bags, which complicates it - the rails either have to be really tiny, or come out really far to clear the straps.
