I have a luggage rack where the passenger seat was. Put a duffle bag or some soft luggage there and you have a good backrest. I did 2300 miles in a week that way, the cop seat was great! Enjoy the trip.

what he said. in my case, that is a 2 point docking kit (which they don't seem to make for the newer bikes), but it would work as well with the 4 point. you just need the solo tourpak rack.

I used a motherwell solo luggage rack, paired with a QD sissy bar and t-bags route 66 roller on my dyna.






I haven't decided on a set up for my new Ultra, yet.

You need a solo tourpac mount and who cares if it look weird if you have a gap should you use the tourpac as is?? ?? Be a good place to carry a giant comfy memory foam mattress to sleep on too.
