No Weld Sissy-Bar Fabrication


I started with mounting "rod ends" to my fender. This is usually where a welded bracket would go.


I then used a MAP gas torch to heat the steel bar I used for my "trial". I didn't want to ruin my expensive brass rod on my first try!


I didn't have to correct bend angles on the steel rod so my fender didn't follow the rear tire. Glad I made this mistake on the cheap piece of steel!



I made the corrections on the bends and mounted the bar. I think it came out great!!!
