RE: custom backrest/sissybar
There's loads to choose from, or you can make your own.
Using Google to search, you get this:

If you're making your own, easiest to use stock sideplates, and make only the sissy bar and pad, from the same section of material used for the OEM bar, so it slots straight in.
I used a stock OEM tall one. Quality was shi7 and I had to re-tap the screw holes in both bar and pad, because the screws would not fit. Chrome's been pretty good, but they rust where the bar slots into the side plate uprights.
You can buy aftermarket ones where the sideplates are welded to the sissy bar, for a much cleaner look, but I wanted detachables.
