• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Can Am passenger backrest install question

Hi all.

Just installed the passenger backrest.

Question for those who either have installed theirs or have one and could look at theirs and tell me which way the plastic "sleeves" face that go onto the frame before you reinstall the side hand grab rails.

The diagram has them appearing to face the seat like this l= but seems like they should face this way =l and make a little track for the removable back rest to sit in.

Hope that makes sense - if you have this installed a pic on the attachment point with the backrest removed (where the grab rails are) would clear this up for me.

Thanks in advance.

​Hope this helps. Collar out toward the hand rail and flange pointed inward toward the machine works just fine. Hope you like yours as well as I like mine! Comfy!

If you notice, there seems to even be a scallop where the flange meets the weld. That was sort of a hint for me! :)
BTW, they sort of snap in place when properly aligned. Have fun.
