My New $20.00 Leather Driver Backrest

[RykerRick]

Got this on Amazon for $20.00 and it actually works really good. Before adding this backrest, when I leaned back, I end up against the Linq Accessory base plate, which isnt too comfortable. This backrest rest right over the edge of the plate and right at the lower lumbar area of the back. Easy install with the straps and quick connects on the backside. It matches the Comfort seat and top case perfectly, and looks like its a factory part. More importantly though, its more comfortable now.

Perfect match, way to think outside the box.

Thanks, but I cant take credit for the idea though, I saw a guy do this on FB. Its sold as a neck rest, designed to go over and underneath the headrest of an automobile, but you save about $160 over the traditional backrest. Because of the Linq Accessory plate, I couldnt use a traditional backrest, so I had to start looking for other ideas. I figured for $20.00 if it didnt work, I could always put it on the headrest in the truck.

Since it's memory foam, as long as it doesn't know it's for your neck it will work awesome! LOL
Great Job, beautiful ride!

Thanks. After cleaning the Ryker last week, I went riding without it and didn't realize how much I liked it until it wasn't there. Twenty dollars well spent. Not everyone can use it though unless they have something to attach it to. With the Linq Accessory base being there, it worked for me.
