I've got a set I can sell you if you want, I just took them off of mine.

It only stuck up an inch or so. I can't remember who it was though. Would be a nice anchor spot if you carry anything on the seat.

Any Ideas? Thanks in Advance! Barney, I'll send you a picture of my bike sometime, and you can pull it out and say, like Crocidile Dundee, "Tacky? Now this one is tacky."

The S40 rails that were made without the sissybar are a good option too...

I used them on my Jeep several times. Kinda looking like that. They worked really well to cover up until I got them fixed properly.
