to renegade 1 yes, what you could do in that case is rather than weld the sissybar material to the sideplate as i did, simply weld some hollow square tube 2-3 inches (ala harley) and slide the sissybar into the square pockets, you could drill a small hole halfway down the hollow tube , weld a nut there then tighten it down with bolts against the bar, hence removable...... yes ... iam here all week lol

I've recently been looking for something like that too for adding something to attach a roll bag or something too. Have been wondering if there was anyway to use Harley quick detach mounts like these http://www.ebay.com/itm/Harley-Quick-Detachable-Sissy-Bar-Docking-Hardware-fo...to our side rails then using harley side mounts and bolting on a vintage bar like Mayors. Anyone ever hear of this or try it? I'm not sure if the width of the frame would work or what.
I don't have access or experience with welding so I'm trying to find alternatives.
