Has anyone done this?
I have the idea of getting a second set of pillion handles (stays) and welding some uprights onto each one so that I can build a backrest and bolt it onto the stays.
In theory it sounds simple so long as I can find the aluminium plate / bar and find someone who can weld it up for me
(I can do all the design work but dont have a workshop at the moment)
With a few modification skills and some knowledge of upholstery, should be no big deal to construct something like that.
Get everything built, then carry it to a welder. Minimal charge that way. Or, do like I have an invest $50K into shop equipment and build your own stuff. :yahoo:
