Benlari’s quick-release passenger sissy bar is a detachable rear backrest engineered to fit Harley-Davidson Touring models (2009–2024) and add secure, ergonomic support for the pillion.

Will this backrest fit my Harley Touring model?

The Benlari passenger backrest is built for Harley-Davidson Touring series produced between 2009 and 2024. It aligns with popular models such as Street Glide, Road Glide, Road King and Electra Glide, but fit requires checking your bike’s year and sub-model before ordering.

• Compatible model families: FLHX/FLHXS/FLHXSE, FLTR, FLHR/FLHRC, FLHT
• Designed for factory-style rear docking points (4-point docking hardware not included)
• Confirm year and variant to ensure hole spacing and dock type match

How comfortable and durable is the pad for long rides?

The cushion uses thick, high-density U-shaped foam wrapped in premium PU leather for a balance of support and gentle give. The shape targets lower-back contact so passengers feel less fatigue while remaining stable behind the rider.

• U-shaped foam for targeted lumbar support and even pressure distribution
• PU leather resists wear and wipes clean after rides
• Contoured profile minimizes shifting and improves passenger confidence

What materials and hardware make this backrest reliable?

Benlari built the bracket from A45 steel with a gloss black finish to resist bending, corrosion, and surface wear under normal use. The quick-release system uses upgraded latch clips for a firmer hold so the backrest stays secure at highway speed or during stop-and-go traffic.

• A45 steel bracket for strength and rigidity under load
• Durable gloss-black finish reduces visible scratches and rusting
• Enhanced latch clips for stable attachment and simple removal

How easy is it to install and remove the backrest?

Installation is intended to be straightforward: align the bracket with your bike’s dock, secure the fasteners with the supplied screwdriver, and engage the quick-release clips. Removal is the reverse; the latch clips allow rapid detachment for storage or when you prefer a cleaner rear profile.

• Plug-and-play design—no permanent alterations required
• Use supplied screwdriver; avoid power drills to protect threads and fit
• Comes with an instruction manual; docking hardware is usually sold separately

Who is this for This Benlari sissy bar is intended for Harley-Davidson Touring owners who want an easily removable, stylish passenger backrest that improves comfort on multi-hour rides without changing the bike’s appearance permanently.
