1982 Honda cm450a- new rider

[Kenguy71]

I just got my license a few months ago, picked up this very nice condition bike for 2500, I am loving how smooth it rides. Only downside is that I am unable to find a sissy bar, most people say you’d have to create one

First...welcome to TMW. I hope you find what you need.

Do you really need a sissy bar? Could you modify a back rest?

[Kenguy71]

I was looking at modification of backrest or other sissy bars but I’m not very mechanically inclined, though I’m learning slowly. I finally found one used in excellent condition though it cost me 200 and change with shipping. I’ll post pics when I get it and put it on.

I was also looking for a sissy bar bag for cmx450. and got at a very reasonable price.

I also found these three, prices are reasonable but not sure about the quality and fitment size either it will work it or not. Does anybody have experience with them?

[Kenguy71]

I got bags from Amazon, they are leather, very sturdy and look very nice too. I’ll dig up the link and send it

Actually it was eBay ..

If you can't do it yourself, you can go to a local auto repair shop or mechanic shop and have them do it for you. It's just as simple as playing PolyTrack on your computer.
