Affordable passenger backrest options? - Rebel73_imp - 02-09-2016
Corbin has a nice seat, but the seat alone is almost $400 and the back rest another ~$200. Yowsa.
Do you think it would be possible to take a universal sissy bar/backrest and modify it to fit the CB? I plan to do more rides with my girlfriend and she said she would be more comfortable with a backrest, and I don't blame her.
I usually ride with my Chic solo seat when I'm on my own, but was thinking maybe I could fab something with the stock seat.

Been a long time and a lot of $ since CB4ME's bike looked like that

That crate idea is perfect!
I don't really want to attach a rear rack deal, although that mini backrest looks nice. I was thinking of something that could attach to the side grab rails?

MetalMaven made up a rack that mounted on the side rails. Was quick disconnect. I saw it when searching. I guess he never made them for sale.

That's pretty nice. Exactly what I need! I wish he'd start selling them!

Thanks!
