Default Need a backrest for your Touring model?
Hood Leather Goods would like to annouce the release of the Tourrest.

The Tourrest is designed to offer the comfort and security of a wraparound backrest without a tour pack. It works for all Harley Davidson platforms(except the Vrod) and will attach easily onto the Harley sissybars.

For more information visit www.tourrest.com

Have a nice day,

Very cool, wish I had not sold my old detachable passenger back rest to mount this to. Do you only sell the backrest, or do you sell the mouting hardware to?

You might want to modify your thread headline, stating that it's a PASSENGER backrest. No harm done, but I clicked on this thinking it was for a new driver backrest.

A drivers rest like this would be awesome for long haul riding.

FWIW, when I had my Tour Pak with wrap-around back rest on a solo rack I hated the way that the arm rests got in the way when leaning the bike. I have since replaced the backrest from a chopped T Pak.

We only supply the seat and the screws needed to attach it. All you need is a Medallion style sissy bar and a mounting plate.
