Lookin good, congratulations.

Notice how the backrest is stuck into the side rails, they are sort of integrated. In order to do a good job of getting rid of the backrest, exchange your side rails with someone who doesn't have a backrest but wants one. Careful when removing the backrest, it is very easy to scratch the fender when taking it off.

Thanks. I don't want to remove the back rest. It appears to have a height adjustment. I just want to lower it. It seems to be a 12mm head and my 12mm wrench seems to have grown legs!

I need to figure out how to remove the pillion to remove the bags and find a wrench to fit the bolts on the back rest and drop it down. I can't lift my leg that high! remove 2 bolts on either side of the front seat, then the pillion is easy 1 bolt.
