Generic 22" Detachable Sissy Bar Passenger Backrest for Harley Touring 2009–2026 — Waterproof Pad, Quick-Release

YHMOTO’s 22-inch detachable sissy bar is a quick-release passenger backrest engineered to add upright support and a custom look to 2009–2026 Harley Touring models.

This detachable passenger backrest replaces the factory pad with a taller, curved 22" sissy bar and a waterproof synthetic-leather pad mounted on robust stainless-steel hardware. Designed for Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide, Road King, Road Glide, Street Glide and related Touring models from 2009 through 2026, the unit balances rider comfort, corrosion resistance and straightforward removal for solo rides or cleaning.

How does the detachable design simplify everyday use?

The latch-and-rod system lets you install or remove the whole backrest in minutes without special tools. Rotate the quick-release latch to secure the sissy rod to the docking hardware or pull it free for a streamlined solo profile.

• Fast-release latch for tool-free removal
• Three-piece assembly for easier cleaning and storage
• Align-and-rotate installation method reduces fuss

What materials and finishes keep this backrest durable?

The brackets use double plating (copper and nickel) plus a black baked finish to resist rust and wear from road conditions. The support rod is stainless steel for strength, while the pad uses waterproof synthetic leather for long-term exposure resistance and simple maintenance.

• Stainless-steel sissy rod for structural integrity
• Double-plated brackets with baked black finish for corrosion protection
• Waterproof synthetic-leather pad that wipes clean

Will this backrest fit my Harley Touring model?

This backrest is engineered to be compatible with a broad range of Harley Touring motorcycles from 2009 to 2026. It fits CVO Road Glide, Touring Road King, Road Glide, Street Glide and models with FLHR, FLHX, FLHT and FLTR designations, using common docking hardware points found on these bikes.

• Compatible with 2009–2026 Harley Touring series
• Works with FLHR, FLHX, FLHT, FLTR designations and CVO Road Glide
• Designed to connect to factory-style docking points

How does the 22" height and curved design affect passenger comfort?

The 22-inch height provides better upper-back support for many passengers, encouraging a more upright seating posture on long rides. The curved rod profile also contributes to a customized, touring-inspired silhouette while keeping the pad positioned for shoulder and lower back contact.

• Taller 22" pad height for added upper-back support
• Curved sissy rod improves passenger posture and style
• Padded waterproof cover for lasting comfort and easy cleanup

Who is this for: Riders who own Harley-Davidson Touring motorcycles (2009–2026) and want a removable, taller passenger backrest that combines improved comfort, corrosion-resistant hardware and a clean quick-release installation. Ideal for couples who alternate between two-up touring and solo riding, or anyone seeking a straightforward upgrade to factory passenger support without permanent modification.
