Yeah , i got 1 for when the missus wants to go for a ride .
They are sturdy and solid , it does the job nicely .
Only prob is the rear reflector on it looks like shit so i made my own .
I think theres some pics on my album of it on .
Did the mod to so that the sissy is ready to be attached whenever , an easwy on off takes 2 mins .

is it bolted on? is there a posting for the mod? thanks
Yes it bolts on to a plate that is provided with it. You also have to remove the stock reflector to mount the sissy bar. Several people have moddified the stock reflector do go over the hac mounting plate when the sissy bar isn't needed.

Pic's, I got a bunch of'm. I just threw a few darts at these. If you don't find the answer youre looking for let me know and I'll throw a few more darts.
BTW I used a "stand off" that mounts to the HAC mount and sits far enough back that will allow the arms of the back rest to slip in and also hold up the custom LED brake light made by Gary Spradley.

I have one as well. GREAT back rest but if you want to keep the stock look when removed you'll have to modify some parts. There's a thread here somewhere where a bunch of us did it.
My wife loves the HAC. I had mine powder coated flat black to match my bike. Looks great IMO. Well... For a sissy bar...:biglaugh:

Hi there... just wanted to add my two cents worth... I bought my HAC backrest specifically from the info provided from this forum. I must say the HAC backrest for my 1994 VMAX is the "bees Knees" ( thought I would kick it oldschool there). In short I am very happy with it and was a cinch to mount..
Cheers
