I in the process of trying to modify my backrest. Whenever I use it for a period if time I have a large wet spot on the back of my shirt. Does anyone have a solution for this problem or is it just me?? Mesh cover/ cloth rather than vinyl ?? thanks Dan

 

I have the samesituation but, I dry-out quickly and don't let it bother me [8D]

 

I want to buy one, when the wife lifts the ban on new parts. [:@]Never thought about it. But I can see how this could make the backrest uncomfortable after a few hours of riding. Let us know what you figure out.

 

Take your shirt off.

 

well its an issue for me too but then again i have other points that sweat so if i cant fix em all why worry bout one???

 

I had the same problemand I also thought the backrest was to tall so Icut 2" out of the uprights now it soupports my lower back and dosent make my back sweat. It does make it a little harder toget snapped in but no big deal

 

AC not an option on your model?

I'm wondering if a cloth cover might slow the perspiration a bit?

It's seems to me that I sweat less on a cloth seat (GoldWing)and back rest than I do on the leather..errrr vinyl HD seat.

Worse case senerio...remove the back rest....problem solved.

I recall seeing a oval donut looking backrest, aftermarket?. Something made of breathable material would be ideal.

 

That oval is from Corbin

 

Thank you.
