Sissy bar plus good tech tip...

Me and my son bent up our sissy bar today, came out rather well.

A good alternative to buying or machining bungs is to use threaded couplings. Any hardware store carries them plus they are already threaded. You can take a bandsaw or grinder and cut them down to a shorter length. Here I used 1/8" pipe thread couplings,  a 1/4" bolt will slide right thru and with little effort you can drill them out larger with plenty of meat left for rethreading.
