If the sissy bar isn't so much for 2 up, Dave's original...or else go with a detachable set up imo.

I have the medium Low with luggage rack on my Lo. I really like it since I commute to work everyday and strap a lot of stuff too it. If you want to commute on the bike then it's really a better choice then the one piece since you can't use a luggage rack with the one piece. I have to admit though that the one piece looks a little better

Consider the Biker's Friend Motorcycle Luggage. Back support and storage. Get the fender guard maybe also.
