PBYMT Detachable Passenger Backrest for Harley Touring 2009–2024 — Gloss Black, Quick-Release Comfort Pad

This compact, bolt-on backrest is designed for riders who want a removable passenger pad that stays secure at highway speeds yet detaches in seconds for a cleaner solo look. Built to match the original docking spacing on Harley Touring frames (12.6–13.77 inches), the assembly combines a heavy-duty metal bracket with a contour foam pad wrapped in PU leather for everyday durability.

How does this backrest attach and detach on my Harley Touring?

The backrest uses a quick-release interface compatible with the stock docking points on select 2009–2024 Harley Touring models. Installation is straightforward: slide the bracket into the dock and lock it in place; removal reverses the steps for a tool-free finish once it’s unlocked.

• Designed for original docking spacing of 12.6–13.77 inches.
• Quick-release mechanism for fast on/off use.
• Includes a screwdriver for bracket assembly (4-point docking hardware not included).
• Fits models like Electra Glide, Street Glide, Road King, Road Glide (see fit notes before purchase).

Will this backrest withstand long rides and highway speeds?

Yes — the bracket is fabricated from A45-grade steel to resist bending and reduce unwanted movement, while the pad's U-shaped, high-density foam keeps contact comfort consistent over extended trips. The design minimizes rearward tilting so the passenger feels steadier during acceleration and cornering.

• A45 steel bracket for improved rigidity and stability.
• U-shaped high-density foam contours to the passenger lumbar area.
• Ergonomic form reduces pressure points on longer routes.
• Gloss-black finish complements factory Harley styling.

What materials and finishes are used, and how do I care for them?

The pad is wrapped in durable PU leather over thicker soft foam for a balance of water resistance and rider comfort. The bracket is powder-coated gloss black to match Harley trim and resist corrosion; periodic cleaning and mild conditioning will preserve appearance and function.

• PU leather cover: wipe clean with a damp cloth; avoid harsh solvents.
• High-density foam: retains shape for extended use.
• Powder-coated A45 steel: resists rust and road wear.
• Inspect mounting points regularly and tighten as needed.

Who is this for? Riders who own a compatible 2009–2024 Harley-Davidson Touring motorcycle and want a removable passenger backrest that blends durability with a factory-friendly look. It’s aimed at couples who frequently ride two-up but still appreciate a quick way to revert to a solo profile, and for anyone seeking a sturdier alternative to softer, non-structural pads. Confirm your bike’s docking measurements (12.6–13.77 inches) and model year before ordering to ensure a correct fit. Note: this product ships as the detachable black backrest and bracket; the four-point docking hardware is not included.
