anyone installed a backrest on a GS1150??

[Guest]

Girlfriend needs one for the occasional ride. I would love to be able to remove it when needed. Looks like one would mount off the grab bar easily. Anyone got any suggestions where to purchase or get one??? As usual many thanks!!!!

they are hard to find, in my experience. I was looking for one and as usual not much choice and very expensive. I got one that was custom made for an 1150 from a guy who wasnt using it anymore. It mounts to the grab rail with clamps and longer screws that hold the rail. Its a combination backrest/ carrier. Original owner said he had it made at a welding shop. If you know anyone who can weld they may be able to make you one. I can email a pic if you want[/img]
