Driver's back rest

[JackB]

I'm going to be buying this back rest from Big Bikes. Anyone have one? I like the smaller size and I think it looks good on the F6B.

I would google it and see what people who own it have to say about it, good or bad, then weigh it by that. I did that when I was looking on a general search "F6B Backrest" and wound up with the one I have now.

If it were me, I would compare it to this one:

Utopia has been doing this for a long time and is generally accepted as a good product.

I had a Utopia back rest on my Valkyrie, And it worked great. But on the F6B I think it looks too big whereas the Big Bikes fits the bike better. I just hope it works as well as a back rest.

I have this one and it works great. One of the best mods to my bike.

I have the Showchrome backrest fitted to my bike and it works and feels excellent. I also think it suits the bike more than the Utopia backrest.

I have also owned Utopia backrests on previous bikes and they are of good quality also.

A backrest makes a huge difference on long rides. I agree that the one you are interested in looks the best on the stock seat. Only potential negative that I see is that the Utopia is removable(I believe) and the other one is not if that makes any difference to you. I have a backrest on my Ultimate seat and like the fact that it is removable, but to be honest I never take it off.

I also incorporated the Beadrider Pillion Seat, $25.95, over the Utopia to allow air circulation between the seat and my back. Never have to lean forward again to allow the air to dry the sweat that builds up from long periods of sitting directly against the backrest.
