Hi all

I'm looking at buying a Fehling riders backrest



Does anyone know if this will fit with the easybracket luggage mounts and standard Triumph bags I already have?

The easybrackets fit on the rear 2 mudguard mounting holes so I'm hoping there is enough clearance.

My guess is no since the EZ brackets use the forward and middle bolts on the fender support.
If you could offset the middle bolt (back on EZ bracket) with a spacer the same distance as the backrest protrudes, then probably so.

 
The ride may be fun, but in the Great Scheme of things, it really is about the destination! John 3:16

Always go for the most comfortable one I think J&P Cycles is a good option for this bike.

It should fit, I use the 2 rearward mounts for My easybrackets,



Very Early / Old Picture ( 2012) with the Protac Backrest from Fast Eddy, when I bought the Mustang seat I have since modified the mounting brackets a little bit and lowered the backrest pad down by trimming the two upright legs.
