Looking for a Pillion Rack that I can also put the pillion seat back on

On my '96 R11GS i was able to ride without my pillion seat on most of the time but i could easily put the pillion seat back on when I needed it. So I need help finding something similar for the 2016 1200GSW. Does the BMW luggage plate allow that?
 
Just this morning I received the June email edition of BMW Motorrad News. In it there's mention of a new "Passenger Seat Tail Bag" with some kind of an easy on/off 3-clip fastener. They say your dealer has the details and the price is around $220 depending on model. I tried to find further info online, unsuccessfully, but apart from price it looks pretty good.

Here's a link to the news email: http://click.email.bmwusa.com/t/gfd...vw_dpXli.flp&bh=czervw_dpXli.flp&i=E19&u=&u=#

The answer to your second question is a big "no". Mounting the BMW accessory is semi-permanent. Altrider and Touratech have the solution you seek with a rack that snaps in just like the pillion seat.
