Kuryakyn makes a quick detach driver backrest for softails.
8988 for '06 -'10 FXS models,'07-'10 FLST F/B.
8987 for FLSTC '93 and up. Don't know what the number for '10 and later is, if they even make one. mounts to the fender struts.
The one in the pic is 8988.

I have a Viking trunk bag for my 2016. I really like it and it has held up for a year without any issues.

For a daily rider to work, it makes commuting with different jackets, laptops, etc. easier.

Nice. My 96 FLSTN simply has the HD covered trunk mounted. The seat I switched for a Saddleman (I believe) but I need to remove the backrest when my wife is riding with me

Yes it is a 2008 Softail Custom Seat. I had Mean City rebuild it, and do the diamond stitch down the middle.

I used bags off a Road King Classic and it's trunk on my Fatboy. The bags are leather on the outside so the theme works but they have a fiber inside giving them rigidity and no sag like the Heritage bags. I like the setup but only use the trunk on long trips. My trunk has a backrest
