different banana seat, what kind of sissy bar?

[streetpirate]

I have seen very few of these with the mounts on the bottom, what kind of sissy bar is used?

If I remember correctly...Its a weird/cool looking sissy bar.I dunno if it has a name.

It comes up from the axle and wraps/bends around to the back of the seat.

What kind of bike is that?

It may be in here...

I have the same bike. It's a Ross Barracuda, mine is a '66. It even has the same seat. If you decide to part this I would be interested in the seat.

Mine is badged as a starflite, but its the same as the ross. Thats a funky looking sissy bar, ill have to make something that works. I was actually thinking of building it for a friend of a friends kid. Its not worth anything, is it?

Restored, the Baracuda is a sweet bike and worth a bit.

In the shape yours is in, not worth squat. So free game to custom.

Sissy bar is not an easy find.

Could you post a picture of the Head badge please.

I love this kind of stuff. Here is a picture of the badge on my '66 Barracuda, very similar to the badge on your bike. Do you know what year yours is?

I also have this Barracuda. It's a '72 only it has a Savoy badge on it. I've never seen another, it's a shame that like yours it is in rough condition. The last pic is of a Ross badge from the same year, the shape of the badge is the same other than that it's different.

This is pretty neat too.
