RE: Backrest ?
I love mine. I wouldn't ride without it. If I really want the stripped down cruiser look for around town or short hauls I remove it, but for long trips I would never ride without one again. Just my opinion though.

It's the best investment in comfort I made.

RE: Backrest ?
i used to think back rests were no good, that was before i got one. i took mine off once, after 15000miles, and was like "what was i thinking?! no back rest!?!". so personally,i wouldnever go with out it!

RE: Backrest ?
Sorry guys. I hate mine. I feel like I'm to far forward. I have the bracket mounted as far as possibleusing the holes they tell you not to use. I havnt givin up though, I'm thinking about bending it so it will lay back some. I love the idea of it.
