Any recommendations for back rest for rider?

[figmotoday]

I just bought a 2012 RS SE5; it rocks. Any recommendations for a back rest for a rider?
Thank you in advance for your time.

Overall I'm a big fan of the BRP backrest for the RS. It's not cheap though. However, it's adjustable and removable for those solo rides.

Many like the Utopia backrest. I personally don't have one (on my list), but the people that own them seem to like them very much. Dale

Thanx Drew and Dale. My wife has asked for backrest options.

IMO, the BRP one is 1000x better than Utopia or any others just in looks alone not to mention it's very well made. Ebay you will score the best deal but as a reminder you will need the sportrack and backrest. Example below, they are available in different colors as well.

Randy, I think Utopia is His only option......He wants one from the driver/operator......!!!!!!and for those who might be interested the Utopia can be installed on a GS/RS/RSS any year without removing the cover to do it.....that's how I did mine.....Mike :thumbup:

I know he said rider but I think he meant to say passenger. I think he wants it for his wife. Sorry, if I misunderstood him if I'm wrong. :thumbup:

Ultimate Motorcycle Seats

Thanx much to all recommendations, this has been very helpful.
To clarify, I need a backrest for passenger.

I may have one for sale in a week or so. I bought a corbin seat with two backrests and will probably take the BRP backrest off. You can check with me later if you haven't got one by then. I will wait to here from you before putting it up for sale. It's black .

I have a Roadkrome passenger backrest. My wife loves it, its very inexpensive but made very well.
here are some photos.

Corbin seat + driver backrest + BRP passenger backrest. Had that on my RS for 5K miles…..

My wife really likes the BRP back rest and we rode over 10,000 miles and it's a quality product.
