    Question about factory backrest

    OK, so this latest 97 I just got running has a factory backrest on it, but the cover has a couple nice tears in it. I noticed it has a zipper on the bottom of it, can these be easily replaced? If so, where would you find one? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!!

    Low Backrest for Gen I

    Anybody know of a maufacturer of a low backrest for the Gen 1? I really don't like the tall "syssy bar" look of the OEM Gen 1 rest but could tolerate something similar to the one they make for the Gen 2
