rider's backrest

[vmaxerCraig]

Hey guys I'm new here, my first post hope it is in the right place. I'm looking for a homemade rider backrest I've seen online that is a quick on off I could use on bike trips. Thanx, this site rules!!:rofl_200:

I have one I'd consider selling. Needs a bit of repair on the pad but works great.

 

[vmaxerCraig]

Yes, that's what I'm looking for. What does it need recovered? I have a full sportmax seat I'm sure it would fit it ok. Thanx

 

[maleko89]

Yeah, needs to be recovered. I caught the seat with my boots when swinging my leg over. It'll work, I have the 1st generation of the RM Sportmax seat...

Does it just slip on over longer bolts and slip on and off easy? How much would you need for it including shipping to Ohio?

 

[maleko89]

Yeah, just bend the rear seat mounting tabs out a tad to fit the rider seat bracket in between. Then, take one of your stock bolts into Ace Hardware to match the pitch and get bolts 10-15 mm longer.

Not sure, give me your zip and I'll stop by the post office to check. I'm guessing about 10-15 bucks.

Sounds easy enough!! Zip code 43952, let me know what you want for it. I'm going to check around and see who does recovering work. Thanx

Craig, sorry it's taking me so long....life is hectic at the moment. I promise to get you a shipping quote tomorrow afternoon!

 

[vmaxerCraig]

I understand, never enough hours in the day. I'm in no hurry anyway

I did the USPS online calculator and it looks to be about $21.25 for Priority and $12.92 for Parcel Post.
