I just put a mustang on a little over a week ago. Love it. So much mute comfy then the stock seat. I don't feel like I'm much closer then i was on the stock seat.

Question

While I'd Love to get a Mustang seat the far more realistic thing for me to do is to buy a driver's backrest.

I've searched ebay but don't 'get' the 2 monting holes to the rear of it.
My seat mounts with one screw?
But it says that it's for my bike though??

Has anyone bought a backrest like this & if so could you post a pic of it pleaseeee

thanks & Happy Holidays guy & gals

This is my first bike and it came with a Mustang seat and back rest. I love it. Just did 4 hours from North Jersey to Philly and back in 40 degree weather. Comfort the whole way.

I have the Daytripper on a 2012 Phantom. Seat is great, but no back rest or back support. The wife enjoys it when we ride two up. I can go a full tank with no issues.

Also, the seat made me up higher a inch or two, but not closer to the tank or bars.

I saved for 1 1/2 year to get the Mustang Vintage with backrest. Well worth the wait!

I bought one like that. Your pillion should mount to the main seat with a bracket and two bolts. The bracket on the backrest should go under the pillion and mount with those two bolts.
