Default detachable backrest/rack

Does anybody make a combo passenger backrest/rack for the four point harley docking system? didn't see one on the harley website. Im looking for something not as big as a tour pack for local rides and my wife dosent like having no backrest.

Default 4 Point Dock

I use the Harley passenger sissy bar w/backrest and the Harley luggage rack (2 separate pieces) on my 09 Road King. I also have a Harley bag that secures over the backrest that sits on the luggage rack. Not a tourpack but gives me quick EZ storage for my day to day crap. You have the option of romoving whatever piece you don't want quickly.

Same setup here. Never had to remove the backrest or luggage rack until yesterday when installing a new seat. Quick Detach really means just that.

I use a quick detach sissy bar and quick detach luggage rack on my Street Glide. Looks like what rhlhamlet shows so clearly in his signature pic. Makes the bike so versatile. Cruising around town? Take the rack and sissy bar off and throw on the low profile Street Glide seat. Riding two up or carrying stuff? Throw on the Sundowner seat and the sissy bar and rack. Completely changes out in three minutes or less. Beautiful system.
