Default Luggage Rack needed

Picking up my new Fatboy Monday, I want to add a luggage rack just to have something to strap my lunch to. I don't want to go to the expense of a passenger back rest and luggage rack set up, mainly because I very rarely have a passenger. Does anyone make a bolt on luggage rack that is stand alone. I saw one in the HD catalog, but did not like the looks of it and you had to remove the passenger to put it on.

I just put the 'tapered' one on my Heritage. Like it a lot but the Heritage does have a backrest. I think it would fit with standard uprights though. You could also look at the rack that comes on the Deluxe. Not sure if it's a fit though.

I just ran across one on Ebay that mounts to the passenger seat bolt and the license plate, it might work.

Motherwell's makes some pretty good small racks. Wont hold the weight of a larger HD rack but I have one on my sporty for hauling my lunch cooler to work.
