Got one with my Mustang and with a bad back I could not ride as long as I do without it. Well, prolly could but would be in much more pain. BTW, I don't drive my bike. I ride it. Its called a riders backrest.

93,000 miles on a Mustang backrest with my 99 Softail, best accessory I ever put on it. First thing I put on my new FLHTC was a HD backrest, so far so good.
