Default Barebacks with backrest docking kit

Has anybody put on Cycle Vision Barebacks with a Harley docking kit for a detachable sissy bar?

My idea is to add the barebacks for my bags, a docking kit and sideplates to make my passenger packrest detachable and put on a solo seat, so I can stirp it down for local riding. (on 2004 FXST).

I just started to buy a Harley detachable hardware docking kit and it looks like there are 20 different ones - docking kits for no bags, docking kits for hard bags, docking kits for removeable bags, etc.

My best guess, so far, is docking kit for no bags, since that's what the barebacks are for.

Anybody know?

Yep your guess is right. The barebacks just replace the strut bolts that come with the docking kit.
