Default quick detach luggage rack

My bike that I just bought came with a quick detach luggage rack. I think it's neat, but I need a backrest for the passenger. Is it possible to use this and mount a backrest? If not, I will need to sell it and get a backrest/luggage rack combo I guess.

yes you can use the backrest and a sissy bar luggage rack that will quick disconnect on the same bracket

Yep, should use the same quick detach mounts for a sissy bar and back rest.

Well I now figured out why I couldn't find a way to connect a backrest to this quick disconnect luggage rack...its made for a solo setup! I imagine I'll sell it and try to find a backrest/luggage rack combo. Unless someone has a trade in mind?
