Default Quick release sissy bar with luggage rack?

Is it possible, if so which one do I need? This is an HD one in my sig pic.

If it's not I'd be trying to sell the one I have now and get a fixed version, then a luggage rack. Thank for the help.

I have an HD rigid solo rack and been thinking about purchasing the HD detachable sissy bar to go with it. I'm thinking since the sissy bar is wider than the fender struts, it appears that it will work with the dimensions of this rack. If anybody can confirm this please let me know. I've seen the detachable HD sissy bars installed over the Motherwell fender racks without any issues.

I’ve got the slanted fat bob rear fender so not sure if there’s enough meat to put it over you know, love to see what some fatbob guys have done, need to check that thread too.

I have one on my Low Rider. It's direct from Harley. Not sure if it would work on your Fat Bob.

Mine is detachable and has a luggage rack. I have a big pad I clamp on when the wife rides with me, and take it back off when solo. Pops on and off in seconds and has locking latches so no one steals it. Works perfect for me.

Mine was made by Edward Ritchie on Etsy. He does custom made sissy bars. I want to say I paid around $200 for mine, and he made it detachable with HD locking latches. There is no other bar out there like mine. Dude is based in Utah, very easy to work with and the quality is excellent. Mine is 23" tall, but he can make them as high as you want them, with or without racks, rigid mount or detachable, with any design you can think of.
