    PASSENGER BACK REST

    Why in the worl is the Passenger Back rest for the F6B so exspensive to such a small item. I see it on e-bay all day long starting at around $350 or so. Who is going to pay $350 for that. Has anyone made an after market backrest for the passenger yet. I have not seen one. I mean come on now. $350 is jus tooo much. LOL

    Maybe I'll find one in Daytona.

    You might consider my idea that I am gonna do, just buy the full seat with backrests for both driver and passenger with removable abilities.
    ED209 says RED is faster, you have 20 seconds to comply !

    I guess design and functionality. It's made with high quality materials and the design compliments the bike. It is very expensive but there are alternatives out there. Functionality lies in the frame mount ready for the luggage rack. If you do buy one keep in mind the back rest requires assembly too.

    Hello,

    for my wife the original backrest was just too small and too low mounted.
    We have taken a driver's seat of the Goldwing and mounted on a self geschweisten holder. The Upholsterers then has made ​​everything beautiful.

    Greetings Oliver

    hondabikepro is making a bracket for me to mount a Driver's Utopia backrest I bought for the passenger. Since the Utopia's backrest is already designed with up and down, forward and back adjustments, I should be able to find the sweet spot for my wife.
