Drag Specialties back rest
ok, new to site, looking for some help, riding an 84 Interstate. Picked up a DS "wingleader" back rest off of Ebay, very clean and cheap (?), said it was off of an 84 1200 ( what else?) however, checking the mount brakets, they don't appear to line up with any bolt patterns under seat? Located install directions for later models that have a sissy handle/grab rail under passenger where they attach the bracket ( after cutting off handle spacers and adding spacers, but whatever it takes!) 84 doesn't have grab handle feature/ bolt pattern. Anybody got a DS on their 84? What do the brackets look like? DS has been no help yet! ..... and of course, now knowing a little more about backrest and mounting system, it did not get shipped with any spacers ( no big deal will fab up new ones if needed), cotter pins to hold seat to brackets or washer/ bushings to secure it all together! The parts man the parts! Surprise surprise! ... Right! Hoping someone out there got some info and even better a pic! ..... Crowe ....
