Default Passenger quick release?

Anyone try to retrofit one to a pre 97 bike?

Passenger quick release??
Like in James Bond?????
I always loved it when he hit the button on the shifter and the passenger went flying through the roof!!!!!!!
I've wished I had one of those a time or two!!!!

You can not install a back rest and that should do it, especially with a little extra acceleration... Lol...

No the quick release for the passenger backrest for 97 and later....like this kit. I've done the TP QR before but never tried the backrest one.
