Hi all,

My wifee habing back problems( scolisys) it was preventing her from doing long rides with me. I was looking for a backrest but did not want to go with a rack or top case or something permanent, here is what I found on ebay. it is a company near my place and it is removable in five minutes and you can put it on in five minutes as well. As our brits friends would say : Brilliant !Attached is a pic, I will receive it on monday! I was about to do it myself and was looking for the materials but stumbled upon, by the look of the sissi bar it should fit.

the company is:http://www.cw-intl.com/, they have a store on Ebay

I willlet you now

Shadow we shoold have a category of parts called add on.

have a good day everyone!

 

Post up as soon as you see if it works out.

My wife won't ride with me unless she has a backrest, more a security thing than comfort. She keeps wanting me to fab something.

 

Will sure do, it is schedule for arrival tomorow... ill mount it and get my wife to sit on the bike to see the fit.

 

if it does work out post the part number (do the forum rules prohibit that?) i looked on their catalogue and couldn't find that anywhere

 

Gooday!

I received it today and it took me 7 minutes to put it on, it fits perfectly , the only problem is that my sissy bar is coated in rubber which moves and don't put it as secure as the gen 2 or 3 uncoated sissy bar. But it should not be that long to fix.

So here are the pictures.

Hi Dragon

I bought a 1993 model last month. One of the reasons for the 'cane was for my wife to ride pillion - my last bike was too small. However, during our first ride together she was cramping up. We reckon that this is due to a lack of backrest - if we had one she could push back, allowing more room for her legs. She does not feel confident to move back on the seat without a back rest.

Therefore, I need a back rest. Do you think that the backrest you purchased is suitable for a '93 mode. Is it stable. Are you happy with it?

Cheers
