    Sissy Bar, rack etc

    Can anyone tell me where I can get a sissy bar, rack and guards for my '04 machine.
    I like the look of the MC Enterprises kit but I cant find a dealer in the UK.
    I dont really want to do any drilling or stuff like that unless I really have to.

    I think you'll be lucky to find anyone in the UK. Try these guys. Cruisercustomizing, in the States, I've bought stuff from them no probs and the dollar pound exchange rate is good to us at the moment. Just be aware you may have to pay VAT to customs when it hits the UK.

    If you want to buy from the UK these people are really nice:http://www.customcruisers.co.uk/

    Personally though I would order from the states as you will save a fortune.

    A mate had a real bad experience with Custom Cruisers with a faulty exhaust. From what I hear they're Ok till something goes wrong !!!

    Well, I spoke to someone at custom cruisers, and yes they were very nice, and they reckon if its made they can get it.
    So watch this space and I'll let you know how it turns out.

    Re: Sissy Bar, rack etc

    Time to update you as to progress so far.
    Sent photo of bits I wanted along with part numbers to Custon Cruisers to get prices, availability etc.
    Rang 'bout 3 eweeks later, Oh we were just going to ring you to confirm prices, They told me, (OMFG!!!), picked myself off floor and agreed. Got a phone call on 26/11 saying that the bits were in. Rang on Saturday when I got out of hospital (not accident, had knee surgery) and the guy there didnt know what I was on about, took my telephone number anmd said he would get someone to ring me back. Up to now no-one has and I'm buggered if I'm going to chase them to spend about £6-700 with them.
    In the meantime I ordered some small items from cruisercustomizing in the States over the net and lo! couple of weeks later they turned up.
    So I guess that the people over Stateside want our money more than the people over here.
    Oh, by the way even with postage and VAT to pay it was cheaper than sourcing in the UK.

    Almost $2 to the £ now so everything is cheap over there, even after postage and customs have been added.

    I've just got one from Cavalry Customs in the US. Unfortunately it didn't survive the trip in the post too well so it may have to go back....Sad
