Default back rest
I have a Mustang solo with a back rest. Best seat around. At least it is for me.

I have a C&C Fastback with removeable drivers backrest. I keep a small roll bag on most the time but I can also strap a big bag to it as well. Very comfortable seat and still looks good IMO.

Find a seat you like and send it to Rich's Custom Seat. He put a riders rest in mine for me. I had a Mustang which was comfortable but the seat looked huge on the bike. I also had a Corbin which was too hard for me and they also have poor tech support in my opinion. They sent me the wrong seat in the right box and talk about a hassle...never again. I had a dusty old Badger solo seat sitting on the shelf which I always loved. Rich put in a riders gel pad, put in a nice quickrelease riders backrest and re covered it all in a nice leather. good price, fantastic job and look and fit right on me and the bike.

On Mustang's web site for a 2007 Dyna, they say they NO backrests?

Crappy web site??? Or Pilot error ?
