R18B Passenger Backrest / Sissy Bar

[CaboM4]

As the title states, looking for a passenger backrest/sissy bar. The OEM and aftermarket ones I found online all appear to not show compatibility with the B and TC. Looking for any solutions anyone has found. Removable would be a plus, as its for my 7 year old son who likes the sense of comfort it gives him when riding on the back.

Looks like the roadstyler is a good looking affordable option. Going to get one on order

Which windshield do you have on your R18B FE?

I’m a fan of the OEM backrest, though it requires removing the side cases to install / uninstall

Wunderlich sissy bar and tail rack combo here on my new B. I had the same on my FE Pure. One noticeable difference is that the B's setup is significantly larger than the one they make for the FE Pure. But the installation was a bit easier, just with more steps (i.e. removing the seat and paniers.

I tried a JuRock 18” windshield as well. Their customer service said it was a similar height to the short stock BMW windshield. However, it actually stood a few inches higher then the stock one. This meant that my line of sight was straight thru the top edge of the JuRock screen - which I did not like. After talking with customer service again, they agreed to make me a 16” screen which allows me to look over the top of the screen now.

Here’s a pic of the stock compared to the 18” JuRock. Stock one is first. Sorry, I don’t have a pic of the installed 16” tall windshield.

Hope this helps.

I wish block weeks would build one for us with that lip on the edge

I just checked with klock weeks, and they say they are working on one, but the weather is making testing slow. They will have one out in the spring of 2024
