Default Low cost sissy bar option?

I think I'd like a sissy bar to be able to strap a backpack to for rides to work. I can't see paying $250 for what is essentially a bent piece of bar stock, though. What is everyone here running? How do you like it?

Well I bought mine through Harley - it is a quick release, I like it, it is heavy duty and my ol' Lady likes it when she goes with me. I'm sure there are cheaper ones out there..
