My wife and I are still adjusting, rather well, to our new to us F3. But she has mentioned the difference in the backrest compared to our 2013 RT Mustang backrest. She feels "pushed back" when I speed up. No, I'm not really twisting the throttle so don't tell me to "backoff the throttle!" :lecturef_smilie:
My question is, has anyone doctored their passenger backrest? I'm thinking of trying to tilt it forward with spacers at the top as that is where she feels it could work for her. Or maybe going to an upholsterer with the bike and her and having it 'adjusted and re-covered'. She feels that a 1/2 inch or so would be enough. I know, not much of an add on. But moving positions small amounts can make a huge difference in comfort. The rest of the stock seat seems fine.
