Where can I find a cheap sissy bar for a new bonneville? Does anyone but triumph make a sissy bar for this bike? Triumph's price is insane! The cheapest price for a new one I could find was $275!!

Good luch on your search. I can't help. I've been looking for a backrest/rack combo and I haven't had any luck. I feel like I've been to every site on the internet that has back or rest or rack on it and still no luck. Hope you find what you are looking for.

I don't think the words "Cheap" and "Triumph" can ever be in the same sentence. Back in March when I got the Tbird I resigned myself to having to pay the 50% "Coolness surcharge" on anything with a Triumph label on it.

Can you shoot a picture of your backrest? I'm always interested in seeing the kinds of modifications that riders make. FWIW, though, when I needed a backrest for the 'bird, I bit the bullet and paid the $$$ for the Triumph item. :wink:

Mototwin has this one, its 55 pounds, not sure what that is in dollars or how much they want to ship it...I think it would be maybe $120 or so? Significantly cheaper than Triumph, anyway....

Disclaimer: I've never actually seen one!

Sissy bar

Looks like it will work with the Triumph K&Q seat anyway which is a plus. Like to see a rack with it.
