MasterGuns Posted October 13, 2008 Share #2 Posted October 13, 2008 I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I say it will fit just fine. I assume it came with all the necessary mounting hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrood Posted October 13, 2008 Share #3 Posted October 13, 2008 There were two main types... one has a "L" hook at the lower part of the backrest arm (used only on the 83-85, I believe), the other is the more popular round pivot type that clips into diamond holes in the lower bracket... Here's the later http://bergall.org/temp/venture/corbin1.jpg The lower bracket for THIS type IS different for the 83-85 and 86-93 because the mount area is different...

You may need to get a set of 86-93 brackets. Not sure of other brands. DJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some one tell me it will. MIKEQ:snow2: You should have popped this question before bidding on the backrest. The 83-85's have a different mounting bracket than the later 86-93's. And the brackets are obsolete. I'm not even sure if the earlier brackets can be modified??? Sorry.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
