yes slippery,i have made a jig to bend the 25mm x5mm steel,so i can make more if needed,i will post more pics once i have had the bar powder coated.
the bar is stronger than the subframe !!
cost would be @£50 powder coated to your choice of colour,delivered mainland uk
all in good time ,
no point in having the seats covered only to find they are too hard/soft ,high or low.
my wife dosnt really ride pillion much at this time of year so i will wait untill she has had a decent run out on it
