Smile Luggage/backrest for FLSTC

I am thinking about getting an extra bag for my Heritage Softail Classic for an upcoming trip to the Tail of the Dragon. I am looking for something to ride on the back seat. I have found a couple but haven't been able to find any that say they can be used with the sissy bar. I was thinking I could lean against it like a backrest during the trip. Has anyone found/used one that they recommend? Thanks!

Just came back from a 4k trip and used this bag set on my Heritage. Lots of room and can go behind the sissy bar or in front and use as a backrest. Lots of straps[velcro] and snap hooks to keep everything in place. This setup has a ton of packing room. Held up great, very sturdy construction. The top bag fits inside the large bottom when unused.
Leather Up had the best price too. http://www.leatherup.com/p/Travel-Ba...ack/50599.html
