Provided Bolts Should Be Replaced

Provided Bolts Should Be Replaced
The Good:Overall the sissy bar itself is excellent quality. It is sturdy and solidly welded. The docking attachments are metal and painted black. They feel sturdy, though, per another comment, I have added some Loctite 243 to the retaining bolts (3mm hex head drive). The paint is not perfect, but it is well enough done that the bar doesn't look like a poorly conceived, cheap add-on (it don't look like trash).I was especially surprised with the quality of the backrest cushion. I expected to immediately need to remove and re-upholster it or replace it. However, it is firm, and the covering material seems to be of quite high quality--it does not look or feel out of place on the bike.I've noticed several comments saying the packaging was insufficient, but mine arrived double-boxed and bubble wrapped. There was no damage. The bolts, nuts, and flanges were inside a stapled, folded and zip-tied heavy duty plastic bad attached to the base of sissy bar. There were no pieces missing.The Bad:Installation was easy, but I feel that the provided hardware (bolts and nuts) should be re-thought and replaced. The original hardware is SAE (Front Bolts: Button Head, T40 5/16-24, 1 3/4"; Rear Bolts: Button Head, T40 5/16-24, 1 1/4"), but the replacement hardware is metric and far too long (6.5 cm, or appx. 2 1/2"). This wouldn't really be a problem if it was a simple matter of just replacing the bolts and nuts. However, the original nuts are locking nuts. That is, they are tapered slightly so that as the bolt enters the nut the combination tightens and locks the bolt into place at the proper depth. This feature is completely absent in the replacement hardware provided. I used some Loctite 243 on them, but I'm still not confident they will stay in place indefinitely.The other issue is the length of the provided bolts. Remember that these bolts are protruding into your wheel well. Harley sized the bolts to ensure clearance for the tire. I'm not sure that if I bottom out my suspension on a hard bump that I won't also end up with a catastrophic blowout.Amazon was terrible on their end. This is a Fulfillment By Amazon (FBA) product--if the product says that it is in stock that means Amazon has it in their possession at one of their warehouses. There were 17 in stock when I ordered. After two weeks without shipping the product, I contacted Amazon to find out why I was still waiting. 17 representatives and 14 "technical difficulties" on the representatives' side later all I could get from Amazon was "It's stuck, cancel your order and re-order at a higher transport rate." I absolutely refused and demanded that they fulfill the terms of our contract--it eventually showed up and I never got an explanation.

No instructions, but if your installing then you don't need them. 2017 & 2012 883's. Someone wrote that the bolts were to long. I really did not see a clearance issue.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than $200 for a Harley sissy bar
Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2022
I drive a 2004 sportster, fit perfectly on it. Granted, there’s no instructions. But if you have an IQ over 60 you should be good to go. It doesn’t come with any tools so be aware of that, all you’re gonna need is an Allen wrench.

Sturdiness: honestly, it’s sturdier than I expected a Chinese made - no instructions included sissy bar. The wife was nervous about it falling off (rightfully so) but those fears were abated when I put my full weight of 170 lbs on the top of the sissy bar and jumped. I pushed, pulled, yanked back and forth and it wouldn’t move so I give it a 10/10

Installation: what you see is what you get. Have heard some people have said theirs arrived bent, luckily mine arrived fine HOWEVER and you may not run into this but in order for the latches to line up on the bottom of the bar (where it screws into the side of the fender) I did need to put a little pressure going inwards but it made it more snug so no complaints.

Looks: looks wise it looks really good, it’s black so it pretty much goes with anything which is nice. It’s nice on my bike especially since it’s older and it’s hard finding Harley parts for an older bike.
