I haven't bought a cb 1100 yet because of this very issue. I've wanted one since it first came out in '13 but none offered that looked right. I've got a vt 1100 spirit and I look at the back rest and I'm thinking it will work with a little tweaking and it would look better with bike design than goofy ones I see offered. I'm looking at used cb 1100's now. To be continued. ; )

My custom Corbin motorcycle seat comes with an slot for an optional backrest that you can also purchase from Corbin. I did not purchase the backrest yet (probably never) because the wife is not interested in riding anymore.

It was something bought from e-bay for ~$60. It was pretty nice but required a hole or two to be drilled.

I'm thinking that's the way to go for now.

Schwartzracer ... I remember him.
There's been another picture of a back rest in the past couple of days, but I couldn't find it earlier.
Apparently he got the ban hammer. I don't remember him or why. At least the pics still show.

Wish I had a photo of the day you gave me and my luggage a lift across Sydney. We must have been a sight.

I have this setup. It works great.
