    Default Backrest alternatives

    I have a 2012 RT SE5 with a stock seat. Are there any other alternatives to a rider backrest than Utopia?

    I put the Show Chrome Accessories backrest on mine . . . easy to do (but nerve-racking to take a knife to your seat!) and very comfortable . . .

    Default backrest

    You can buy my 2014 SEAT FROM My RTS FOR $200 then you can buy the CAN AM BACKREST.

    Should you ever decide to get the comfort seat that moves you back 2" (I really needed it!) then the Show Chrome (a.k.a. Big Bike parts or Value Accessory) wont work on that. The only one I know that makes a backrest that will work on the comfort seat is Utopia.
