Default slim/blackline sissy bar questoin

I have a slim and my wife wants a back rest. With every other brand of bike I have owned I was able to buy an aftermarket quick detach but that doesn't seem to be the case with Harley. I really don't like the look of the HD quick detach but it seems to be my only option....????? Does anyone know of a better looking aftermarket quick detach??? is there any other model that would have the same fit??? I found one from a crossbones that I like but im quite positive it wont fit. Looking for a quick answer with my Sturgis trip getting very close. PLEASE HELP!!!

Khrome Werks and Bowman Welding both make sissy bars for Slim's and Blackline's. Check them out.

The Bowman is not quick detachable; I have one but it is pretty much permanently mounted. I do have a Harley brand sissy bar with pad on eBay at the moment...nearly new (just saying, not to troll, pm me if you want more info). That said, you will need to get the quick detach hardware kit with it.

I've been real happy with the Bowman from TOP HAND VENTURES on eBay - the pad he recommends is Harley OEM -

is perfect for it and the little woman say it's quite comfortable...

I saw this one too and it's a pretty good price. What seat do you have? And does the old lady like it?

Harley reduced reach seat - my old lady loves it - lots of padding on her end - seems like it could a little more padding on my end though.
It's a good fit if you're 5'6 or less.....

I have a Bowman (fixed) but I'm so happy with it that I never plan on removing it! Fits the standard H-D pad as well.
