About Cobra
Cobra USA builds exhaust, sissy bars, luggage racks and bolt-on styling parts for cruisers and baggers, with a catalog aimed at the rider who wants a finished, matched look rather than a one-off fabrication. Its slip-ons and full systems are designed around factory mounting points for a straightforward bolt-on install.
The Cobra Short Detachable Backrest in chrome offers both passenger comfort and the flexibility to switch to a solo setup in seconds. Its proprietary pull-release mechanism means you can install or remove it without tools, maintaining your bike's clean lines when riding alone. This backrest combines classic chrome styling with modern convenience for your Harley-Davidson.
Why riders pick this
- Detachable design for quick, tool-free removal
- Sleek round chrome sissy bar with black vinyl pad
- No turn signal relocation needed for installation
- Provides a comfortable short backrest position
- Designed for Harley Softail, Dyna, and Touring models
Designed for a range of Harley-Davidson Softail and Dyna models, this Cobra detachable backrest provides essential support for your passenger on longer rides. The round chrome sissy bar with its black vinyl pad adds a touch of classic style that complements any V-twin. When you're ready to ride solo, the backrest detaches quickly, leaving your bike with a sleek, unencumbered profile.
Effortless On-Off Design
- Detachable design allows for installation or removal in seconds without tools
- Features a striking round chrome sissy bar with a comfortable black vinyl pad
- Engineered to mount without requiring relocation of stock turn signals
- Provides a short backrest position for subtle support
Seamless Integration and Style
This Cobra backrest is engineered for a straightforward fit on many 2018-2025 Harley Softail, Dyna, and Touring models. Its design ensures that you don't need to modify your stock turn signals, making for a cleaner installation. While the backrest itself is quickly detachable, note that it requires Cobra docking hardware, which mounts permanently to your frame and is sold separately. This system gives you the best of both worlds: passenger comfort when you need it, and a clean look when you don't.

Really made the back rest and sissy bar pop. I had seen reviews where the mounting holes did not line up with the back rest. Mine lined up perfectly. Workmanship is great. Made from thick sturdy material that will stand up to use and the weather. Only con would be that there are only 2 designs for the smaller 11 inch sissy bar/ backrest combo. I really liked the skull and flag insert but not available for 11 inch bar. I would buy this product again for the next bike

Really made a difference in the looks of the backrest. I had read in another review that the screw holes did not line up with the backrest pad and sissy bar but this one lined up perfectly

Great product!!! The quality is amazing and worth the price. Super easy install for my Cobra 11"in chrome detachable mini sissy bar on my 2014 HD Street Bob. Fast free shipping was icing on the cake😎
