    :witsend:Like the title says: Who manufactures a 30" + sissy bar for a bobbed fender 07 FXSTC? Having one fabricated & chromed would be out to lunch if someone knows who builds a bolt on. Any ideas? Harley only goes up to 20 inches & that just won't do...

    same goes, built mine and had it powder coated, should see a couple picks in the gallery on it also, pretty basic fabrication skills are needed or go down with a sketch to your local welding shop then ship it out for plating.

    Thanks for the heads up... I'm up here in Trenton, Ontario (The Boonies). My stock bar is a traditional one piece bolted straight up to the fender & seat. Most of what Harley sells is a bolt up / quick disconnect affair, that I personally think look's like... I guess I'll look for a cheap stock FXSTC bar on ebay (for the base and dimensions) and let a welder have at it & find a metal finisher. That way I'll at least have a stock bar on it for the rest of the season. I like the stock look, just want it a lot higher & more useful. -Dances
