Back from French road trip. 1800 miles of fabulous roads and sunshine.
Paid the import duty on the back rest yesterday and the it was delivered today. Will fit to bike this evening and take s pic of two. Had to bring the bike into dealership to get the ignition switch fixed (a small grub screw had worked free while in France preventing the switch from being turned to ignition. ). All fixed now

 :worthless:
So here are the pictures of the backrest (with and without pillion seat fitted).
The backrest is confortable and does the trick.
Only one coment is that when the pillon seat os not fitted one can see the knurled nuts that attach the rider seat to the rear fender as the covering "leather" gets trapped forward of the back rest bracket. But thats only a minor negative. Overall rating is a very high positive.

I ride most of the time with just the solo seat . When I put the backrest on I replaced the chrome knobs with black ones so they blend right in.

I ran a grasshopper back rest for years on my last bike and loved it.  For this scoot I'm trying a backrest from bitchin stichin.  They haven't updated their site but they make a custom bracket for our seats

What I've done is to paint the two seat knobs black. Cheap option
