Default Backrest with NO side plates - Deuce style

Saw a Deuce style backrest that was made to fit softail standards and night trains. Did not use sideplates and bolted on or off using rear fender bolt and looked just like the Deuce backrest. Small and good for short passenger rides. Saw it on Ebay about a month ago but do not see any currently. Does anyone know who makes these or sells these units. Interested in getting one NOW.

Hi rgm,

I think you are talking about this:

I'm thinking about getting one of these too, so if you buy one and install it, I would thank you if you tell me how does it works.

Regards,

Javieret

Thats not the one I have seen, but it likes like it may work. Anybody used this one on a Night Train fender. Is there any holes to drill or does it fit on as is?

I have this backrest.My rear fender is'nt stock but I placed a stock seat on it to drill my holes.The only problem I have is that when you take it off there is a spot at both mounting points that needed to be buffed out.I remedied that by covering it with a cotton t-shirt.I bought the one for a WCC fender even though my fender is an aftermarket fender from V-Twin.By the way my bike is an '02 night train.
