First, nice to see people trying to do new things. However, I think that the seat does not go well with the Rocker. The lines on the Rocker are smooth, flowing, and sculpted. The lines on this seat are straight, angled, and hard edged and seem to be misplaced in the back. Also, that is one elongated 2-up seat, it almost stretches out past the rear of the bike. To me the seat looks like it is tacked on rather than following the flow of the bike IMHO.

Where did you get the backrest from, and any instructions on how to fit up.
