Just bought a XLC Sportster 1200 and I am looking for a reasonably priced (> or = $100) backrest for my 5', 100lb wife. I have the touring seat on there now. I would prefer chrome. Any suggestions?

got the 7 1/2 round & like it a lot, the pad is narrow which gives gf another inch or so of wiggle room.
Also got the Bantam but gf finds pad too thick.
not detachable however
For either you'll need sideplates, sissybar and pad. Add the docking kit for detachable.
Only way to stay under $100 is probably used from ebay and even that will be hard if you need all the parts. Check your local CL, swap meets or the for sale section here.
