Vulcan Sissy Bars
The foam padding used for the backrest of Vulcan sissy bars is shaped in a way so that it will fit perfectly around the outline of your spine. Though the backrest can come with a plain leather and vinyl surface, you also have the option of including chrome studs lined along the edges. This feature can be removed if not being used but is handy if you or a passenger need to lean back when traveling over hundreds of miles.
Eliminator & Mean Streak Sissy Bars
Eliminator and Mean Streak sissy bars manage to stay in place thanks to the mounting brackets fastened on either side of your motorcycle’s rear. The bolts cannot be easily knocked loose from the holes nor will the sissy bars suddenly fall off due to the heft of the mounting brackets. Aside from the length of the Eliminator and Mean Streak sissy bars, it is possible to mount a luggage rack to provide an extra area to store your luggage.
Features of Kawasaki Motorcycle Sissy Bars
A Kawasaki motorcycle sissy bar is an attachment behind the driver’s seat meant to carry baggage that cannot fit on your motorcycle. If all the spots on your motorcycle are already occupied, you can secure luggage to the Kawasaki sissy bar instead.
Made of stainless steel, the surface of a Kawasaki sissy bar is smooth enough to allow your luggage to slide seamlessly by the straps. Yet the metal has enough grip to keep your belongings secure at the bottom. You will also find the density of the steel bars make them strong enough to survive impacts with little to no visible signs of damage.
Besides expanding your vehicle’s storage capacity, a Kawasaki sissy bar can also be a backrest for you or your passenger. The frame of the Kawasaki sissy bar fits the average width and height but the edges of the steel bars can dig painfully into your passenger’s back.
That is why there is space to install a built-in or removable foam pad in the middle of the Kawasaki motorcycle sissy bar. The foam pad is densely packed so that there is a cushion serving as a buffer between you and the metal frame.
Though the Kawasaki sissy bars do not come in many color schemes, there is some customization when it comes to the finish. You can choose either a chrome or matte black finish.
Design of Kawasaki Motorcycle Sissy Bars
Starting from the top of the Kawasaki motorcycle sissy bar, the head is where the twin steel bars are fused. The head can either come with a U- or V-shaped tip, which in turn determines the shape of the space formed by the Kawasaki sissy bar.
The height of the Kawasaki motorcycle sissy bars can vary from short to tall so that each product can be tailored to multiple height ranges. The average height of the Kawasaki sissy bars at Viking Bags is 25 inches. However, this aspect of your Kawasaki sissy bar can be changed if you order an aftermarket version.
Upon reaching the base, you will find the rounded yet flat mounting brackets. There should be holes at both the front and back ends big enough to fit the fender struts. Though the brackets usually are perfectly round, some have contours and/or rungs along the surface to aid in fitting.
