Adding Drivers backrest for 2013 STS?

Anyone know if a drivers backrest can be added to a 2013 STS without having to replace the seat?
Thank You !!

Spencer, Check with Utopia, I purchased 2013 ST backrest from them about 4 years ago. Hopefully they still sell this item.

Installation is kind of involved, seat comes off, cover comes off seat, large bracket installed, cut hole in roam and cover, reassemble. The instruction sheet is pretty góod, but it definitely takes some courage to cut the cover. You will need a powerful stapler to refasten the cover.

If you are queasy about this, I think an upholstery shop would install the backrest.

The backrest is fantastic, looks góod, works as advertised and has provided hours of comfort. I recommend the removable version, it folds down as well as removable.

You can do it!!!

thank you for the post.

There are kits out there, but there are also a lot of people that are selling seats with them already on for sale!! there's has been two or three just in the past week or so on this site!! Good luck, happy hunting!!!

Got mine from Smoothspyder, Did not have to remove the seat. No cutting needed. See his web site on the home page of SPYDERLOVERS. My bike is the black ST with the sheepskin on the seat. Excellent quality.

Also adjustable for driver or use for passenger

Did you install it yourself djhobin? I watched a video and install seemed a little difficult..
