I am looking for a drivers backrest for my 89 VR. I have found 2 on ebay for 83-85. Will they fit or am I looking for a completely different animal? Hate to bid only to find out it won't fit! Maybe someone has one they want to sell? Thanks.

I got a driver backrest from Chrome World International. The first one was so uncomfortable, and I had adjusted it all the way back as far as I could. I was still sitting up next to tank. So I checked the part # on e-net and found out that they had sent wrong part. Even though it did bolt on correctly,it was for older model. So about 4 weeks later they sent me another. I bolted it on and better but it to was still to close to tank. I drilled another set of mounting holes and tried it out on short ride this evening, finally comfortable and able to adjust. No more Chrome World International for me...... Fuzzy -

Saddlemen? if so where can I find a backrest as I do not have it. Thanks in advance, Kim -
Does anyone know where I can pick one of these up ---cheap? -
I was wondering if anyone has compared both the Diamond R and Utopia Pillowtop drivers backrest and if so what were your pros and cons for each? Also, which did you opt for and why? Looking to buy, but not sure which to go with. Thanks, Mark

Here's a pic of a stock RSTD passenger backrest converted to a removable driver backrest. The mounting brackets left over can then be used as a removable trunk mount. -
Anyone know which brand this is? Thanks.

Well, I took off today and drove 575 miles and I am so very pleased with the Utopia backrest. I am not doing a commercial, but I have to tell you, it was worth the wait!! Just thought some of you might be interested. Keep it tween the ditches! Sky Pilot

I’m removing the trunk and mount on my 2004 RSV and stumbled on a few threads in the past on options. For now I’m leaning on getting a RSTD backrest and was wondering if someone put together a complete list of parts and or can point me to a dealer that can get me setup at a reasonable price. -

I just installed the new seats from Diamond on my 05 RSTD and I now have an extra backrest for sale, as the one I had on my origional seat won't work with the Diamond Seats. The one that I am selling is 1 year old and looks as new, it is a Utopia and matches stock RSTD seat you can view the backrest at www.utpr.com/royalstar2005. A new one sells for $179.00 + $10.00 s&h, I will sell this one for $150.00 shipping inc. to lower 48 states. Contact me at sgroves1@roadrunner.com.

So I snagged a used Corbin 1 piece seat on eBay (got a GREAT DEAL).. but it comes without backrests. Looking on Corbin's site, the backrests are like $250!! So I did some digging around, and I found this company that sells backrests that supposedly mount on the Corbin seats.. anyone heard of or had one of these? http://www.harrisonspecialtiesstore.com/servlet/the-27/Corbin-Seat-Drivers-Motorcycle/Detail This backrest is 1 inch taller and wider than the standard Corbin backrest.. very tempting for the $$ but thought it might be wise to check here first. Thanks! Doc

for my '83 VR is a horn, and a backrest. The horn on my bike is pitiful, with not enough voice to alert anyone to anything . I would like to know what is the legally loudest horn set that I can get for my bike. Also, where would be the best place to get the best price for a backrest?

Been looking for a backrest for my bike, this one's on ebay, complete back rest with trunk rack (don't need). Anybody got an idea on approximate value? Won't overpay for it, but would like one. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110191450448&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:1123

Hey all, got CCOerika liking the 2up thing. She now schedules rides and tells me in the morning unexpectedly. No cryin' here, I am all for it. Well, since this is happening more often and we are going a bit further, the bums are getting a little sore. An hour an half and it is time to get off and rub em off. I need some help on what I can do and who y'all recommend to do it. I had my seat and backrest re-covered a while back and like it and do not want to change that. The padding under it is original and has had more than it's share of weather on/in it. I had to have the covers redone because they melted and parts were staying on the pants. Help keep the bums lasting longer! -

I found a little barrel backrest with a long apron that you sit on. It is held in place by a heavy black stretch cord and it only cost $39, It hits me just right in the lower back. Got it a local Yamaha dealer. tew47

Greetings: I ride a 2006 RSTD and the past few rides my shoulders and back get quite sore/tired resulting in my having to stop every 30-40 minutes. I have ridden about 18,000 km this past year and this is getting worse -( it was not bad at the start) I have been thinking about the Mustang seat and backrest. Those of you who have switched to a Mustang or even a Corbin - did you find this helped the stiffness and soreness? How about highway pegs - will that also help? Thanks in advance Eugene

About two years ago, I upgraded my seat to a Mustang. Unfortunetly, I didn't order the one with the backrest. Now here I am wanting the backrest, but don't want to buy a whole new seat. Does anyone know how to add a backrest to a Mustang, or know of anyone who can? Mustang cannot add it on. I have to spend $700.00 for a new seat. Or better yet...knowing the ingenious members we have here, does anyone have any other possible homemade solutions? My back thanks you!

Traded wife’s RSV and purchased smaller touring cruiser for her. Got a decent trade in price and told the dealer OK if I can take some of the accessories off. Planning on putting the items on Ebay but figured I would give my Venture riders first shot at these listed accessories below. All items are in great shape and prices do not included shipping cost. All items will also be listed in classified ads with picture. Thinking of removing Passing Lamps and selling for $150.00; if anyone is interested let me know. Thanks Corbin Royal Star Venture Backrest ---$125.00 Saddlebag Trim Rails --------------------$100.00 Leather Tank Bra with Pockets--------- $100.00* Tinted Lower Wind Vents--------------- $100.00 Utopia Backrest (Pillow Type)----------$125.00 Insta-Trike kit by TowPac--------------$2500.00 * Tank bra has two small holes in lower pocket flap where I mounted a metal nametag, which can be purchased at any bike rally.
