Review on πŸ”§ Enhance Your Ride: Kuryakyn 1670 Plug-In Adjustable Driver Seat Backrest for Harley-Davidson Touring Motorcycles (1997-2019) in Sleek Black by Lex Ismael

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I underestimated the advantages of the backrest! highlighted.

Also looked at the HD brand and others. The HD brand is difficult to release as you have to put your fingers in the seat slot and press 2 buttons that release the seat. The backrest has a small spring-loaded pin that locks the seat in place. The pen is adjustable so you can set it as stiff/light as possible and shoot as you like. I give it a light tug and it slides straight out of the mount and the backing comes off. It also allows you to adjust its height. It took me about 20 minutes to install. Make sure you don't drop the retainer nut or you'll never be able to get it out. Mine fell behind the battery box and got stuck between the box and the rear fender. It was enough for a simple magnetic extension, but I can see where that could be a problem. I put about 700 miles on it on my first ride and it was just great. It made an incredible difference in lower back comfort. I would recommend, especially in this price range. 2006 RD King Classic
