BUILDING A BACKREST

A sissy bar upright and passenger backrest are the starting point to build a complete touring machine. The backrest provides long-range comfort and support and adds a feeling of control and confidence for the passenger. Start by selecting model-specific Docking Hardware, then choose a finish that matches your styling direction, determine the desired sissy bar height and finally select a backrest pad that complements your seat.

In the time it takes for a traffic light to change, you can transform your motorcycle from a city cruiser to a crosscountry hauler. Start with Harley-Davidson® Detachables™ Sideplates, and add your choice of sissy bar upright and pad to make removing the passenger backrest a simple slide and click operation. Manufactured and tested to rigorous HarleyDavidson standards, installation requires separate purchase of model-specific Docking Hardware Kit.
