I like to ride, but my back likes to lean against something, and this fits the bill. Easy to adjust to fit me. Ride on.

Just what I needed.

I bought a Yamaha Stratoliner, it came with a Mustang seat, but no backrest. Bought this and it slides right in, feels great. It folds over flat to make getting on the bike easier. It has a simple bolt adjustment to change the angle of the back rest. It is a little on the expensive side for what you get. The backrest is definitely a high quality piece that should last a long time. I feel like I'll be able to do long trips on the bike without my back getting wrecked.

Excellent. Had one on an earlier fat bob and rode from Darwin to Hobart and back twice, 4500 kms each way, 18000 klicks all up. Couldn’t beat the comfort.

Driver back rest for Mustang seat

The style and fit go very well with my seat. The only thing that I don’t like is that Harley Davidson has changed the installation into the slot. Part of the adjustment screw shows above the back seat. It looks like it has been installed incorrectly. I took it to a HD dealer to make sure I had installed correctly, and was told I the issue is that HD has made changes and it shows the screw. I’m not very impressed on how it fits onto the seat.
