Wife would like to have the backrest sit higher. I know Ultimate makes one, I think a forum member has made some, and I read some dealer in IA makes an adjustable one. Is this all of them, and does anybody have contact info and prices on the latter 2?

Mine are at the powder coater..... a direct OEM copy ...only 8 1/2 tall and no center hole behind the cover .... will/should be on ebay by the 12th


Price will be $49.99 this will cover the fees of PayPal and Ebay and Shipping and the Metal shop and the powder coater...and some gas and time ...crazy how this adds up

+1 on that backrest. Good price, and it's adjustable. Looks good with stock seat.

I made mine. Bought a piece of flat stock at Home Depot and cut 2 8" pieces off. Put them side by side and mounted them to the stock mounting plate. Took a piece of foam around it and wrapped it in leather. Just about $12 and 2 hrs of work.

Nice thing is, there is enough spare flat stock to make mistakes or experiment with size.

I'd take pix put the scoot is in WA and I'm in SC. Won't be home until late tonight.
