If all you want is to keep her from sliding off, you should be able to make a very small butt guard in place of a real sissy bar.

I would take a piece of scrap metal, bend it into a "U" shape that would fit over the pillion seat and then add some kind of padding so it doesn' dig into her back too badly. She really needs to learn how to grip the bike while she rides, even as a passenger. The Gz isn't one of those bikes that should throwing people off the back. Hands around the waist help too. Brother or not, a good grip on the rider is essential for passenger safety.
