I need to move my passenger backrest back about two inches. Does anybody know of a way to do this? I have an extra sissy bar and pad that I was thinking of getting modified but Im have no idea who could do that and dont know if theres a kit or some easy way to take care of this. Any ideas? I tried a search

 

If its for an 09 or newer search my name and threads I have started and there are pictures on how to do it. I dont know about 2 inches but 1 or 1.5 is easy to do.

I think on pre 09 you simply re drill the hole that the Bung is bolted to which lowers it down allowing the back rest to hinge down lower in the back which increases the angle which moves it back.

If you do this remember not to just drill a new hole directly below it. It will move in a curved pattern so you will have to mark the new hole.

I could be wrong just trying to help.

this is what I did. Hope this helps.

 

I really like the end result with your solution, not sure I have the tools or ability but that looks exactly like what I want.
