Rider's backrest
09/04/12 at 09:38:43
 
Has anybody ever found a rider's backrest for a S40? If not here's what I did: It's a small bag with a piece of 8" concrete form inside it to make it firm enough to lean back on and a laptop cover with a piece of foam inside it. Might be cheezy but it was cheap. Works great for me.

Savage/s40 is not listed but I emailed them and they replied that they do indeed sell them for our savages/s40's.

They do have them listed on the site.   Just click the link for full model list.  It's the first one in the Suzuki area of the list.   What I wish they would do is put up some pricing.

I see it's there now, it wasn't 2 months ago when I was on the site. Maybe they added it after I emailed them asking about it or maybe I'm just blind lol

I think I will keep mine the way it is. I am 6' 3". Short legs and long waist. I tend to slouch when I ride. Mine is nice and soft on my back and cost less than $50. I never have a passenger, so it works for me.

Clink on the link to Fast Eddie Sports on the Protac home page you will see that the Savage/S40 rest appears to retail for US$135, plus shipping.

I just ordered a Protac. $125 plus $15 shipping. If you changed the fender rail things he will need a measurement.
