Banana seats! (dumb question, ha)

[phantomxrider]

Well guys I want a banana seat. This is the first time I've ever messed with one and I was wondering what parts, etc are needed? Right now I have these two parts lined up:

Sissy bar

Seat

For this bike (Goodwill find, "Ocean Pacific" cruiser)

So guys, any help?
Thanks

the two things you need to consider are the height of the seat from the rear rack mounts and the distance from where the seat post attaches to where the sissy bar holes are... :roll:

the easy one to mount would be the type of sissy bar with clamps not the one that goes on the axle. and get the tall one so you will have plenty of wiggle room to adjust the hight. then just cut off what you dont need or go all lowrider and bend the lower part backwards.

You will also need the hardware for the seat of course. I find that a 20" or longer seat works best on 26" cruisers but, that is personal preference. Nothing is cooler than banana seats and apes to me though. :wink: I like your rat and the direction you are wanting to go. Have fun. That is a good site you are looking at too. Have ordered stuff from them and had good luck.
