Default Is this right????
This is the bolster mock-up for my Cafe Racer. I was told that they confirmed measurements from a 38 and a Playboy prior to fabrication, but, do they really have that much of a cant towards the back like that?

Default pics
Couple of pics of mine. Definitely a cant to the frame which translates to the bolster when mounted. The original Mistress bolsters and frames had no cant at all. I can take measurements if it would help.

Mine have no cant. The bottom of the bolster is level but it is an 86 and has the old style bases.

This was from a thread a few weeks ago......

http://www.westcoastoffshoreunlimite...-bolsters.html

If you follow the link and look at they're photos...........they don't appear to be canted.

I don't know which one is right! Some are canted, and some aren't..........................
