Can't use stock passenger pegs with Frankenstein Hot Rod rear, so relocated to front fender strut bolt. Easy fix - same threads, longer bolt required. Pegs up high - like old school choppers!

</div>i have a small p pad with suction cups that works pretty good. one of the advantages to having a really short fender is that my girl has to sit real close and hang on tight! plus, it helps that she is a tiny thing. heehee...<br />

Plan on using the same Mustang rear seat (without conchos) - wife was comfortable on this one. It will also be mounted further back than normal for a little more room and to clear the Corbin seat (which I won't give up). Will also be fabricating a similar sissy bar. The trick will be mounting it all without drilling any new holes in the fender which will probably involve fabricating a seat / sissy bar base that attaches to the 3 studs where the stock HD backrest mounts and some rear feet than won't mar the fender. The goal is to do the conversion in a way that it can be reversed, should the next owner want 2 wheels instead of 3. I'm well aware that Deuces are holding their value lately - especially anniversary editions.
Just waiting now for that phone call that the Frankenstein is in...

Memories...:yes: No, not the song from cats:no: I rode a '71 Sporty chopper in the late 70's with the passenger pegs on the shock bolts. Looked cool, and I could always lean back and use her knees for armrests. Definitely a case of having "your knees in the breeze".:yes:
