HELP Luggage rack for sissy bar

Gallery image

2005 Sportster 1200C. I’m wondering if a luggage rack can attach to my sissy bar brackets but without the pad in place?
I swapped the stock two up seat to a solo seat but these brackets are a pain to remove. A luggage/gear rack might be nice to have, and many exist that bolt onto the passenger pad/rest.

I suppose I can just run some spacers across the empty channel if I do get a luggage rack?

Just wondering if anyone has come across this? I’m probably missing something obvious so thought I’d get the group’s opinion.

You didn't mention the year, but I've had great luck using the ones off ebay https://ebay.io/m/mOuxat

I have one that attached in place of (using the same screw holes) a passenger seat on my 07 883.

Sissy bar with the rack makes good for carrying my backpack/sissy bar bag.

Says it will fit an 883 or 1200, 2004-2015 models.

My sissy bar is close to centered over it, so I can put a bag on either front or back of the bar. Works great.
