Default Passenger Backrest question

Looking for removable passenger backrest to go with my factory badlander seat for my 08 Night Train.
Ive seen the Kuryakyn Plug N Play http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/772/Plug-N-Play

and the Haulen *** Backrest
http://www.haulenass.com/product/HA-BRFXST-P-P1

I also looked at the removale sissy bar from HD the tall black one, but to install that i'd have to relocate my signals, and add the extended the strut bolts, a lot of work and $$ just for her comfort.

Any suggestions?

I've got the detachable HD one and it wasn't a pain in the a$$ to install.

Sweet looking train. I have a soft spot for trains

+1. Got the HD removable and not hard to install at all. Turn signal re-location no big deal either. I love it. Don't use it much, unless got my t-bag on or the mrs. back there. my wife usually rides her own bike though

The on and off of the bar would be the easy part. the problem is my signals are really close to the struts. i tried one on at the dealer to see if instead of looping it around the rear strut bolt i could use the light but its to narrow.
To fit the longer strut bolts id have to relocate the signals closer to the front.

You could run the Alloy Art sigs.

i ordered the harley removable one. My shops going to make me some spacers so i could either use the rear signals instead of the bolts, or push them out enough to clear the bolts.
