    The listing ran out last night so I put it up again,,,,Thanks again !!!
    I'm leaving for San Diego from Philly on 8/2 with the wife in tow. She's not crazy about the stock backrest but was willing to give it a try on a long run. I saw the Corbin seat to late to get it in time for the ride. I ordered the riser from Steve's post today and I'm praying it makes it here in time. She's going to need something to lean back on and the stock rest is nothing but a butt chock like you said hahahaha

    I'm back from my ride to San Diego from Philly with the wife!!!!! Thanks to Steve's back rest and his fast shipping the wife enjoyed the whole entire trip!!!!! We did 600+ days and put about close to 7000 miles (round trip) on my baby
    (F6B) and my baby rode like a champ!!!!!! We went the southern route (Tennessee, New Orleans, Texas, New Mexico, and into San Diego) we also rode the coast in to LA. I thought I was not ready for a wing yet but thank you Honda for the F6B!!!!!!

    Trouble removing the Back of the passenger Backrest

    Anyone else having trouble removing the back of the passenger backrest? I removed the two bolts, but the cover won't come loose... Thanks.

    after you remove the two screws, pry the bottom open a little and put your hand in. There are two plastic "V" shaped doodads that just need a little pressure to pop out. Seems to work best when you push them outwards from the inside

    I could see those doodads after removing the screws. Didn't want to pull too hard, I was afraid of breaking something. Thanks for your help. I'll give it a shot tomorrow. Out riding the beast all day. What an awesome ride. Stopped in a rest area and had a couple around my age asking about the bike. She wanted to try out the passenger seat. I let her get on, he took a photo of us. I hope my fiance doesn't find it on the internet somewhere. Last week had two young ladies asking for a ride... Thanks for your help! I'll let you know if I'm successful...

    Putting my hand in did the trick. Popped right off. Side note; whoever put the bolts on for the bracket tightened them way too tight. One of the bolts is now turning in the white plastic piece without coming loose. Got it off anyway though... Success! Thanks for your help.
