I would like to buy a backrest for my MP3 250 2007. I saw one on internet TB 106. I would like to know if someone tried it and how it fits. Can you still open the trunk and is it a good backrest.

Thanks

Thanks, I have read the message. I am not sure if he likes the backrest and if it is well secure now with the added screw.

I sent a PM.

Thanks

I'm actually going to be removing the backrest I put on mine, since I am going to add a top box. I'd be happy to sell it on into your hands if you were interested.

It's about 6" high above the standard passenger hump, and it appears to be OEM (same type of material, embossed logo, same plastic baseplate as the standard passenger hump), though it doesn't look like the official ones in the photos of 2010 MP3s. It's as simple as removing the three screws, swapping pieces, and putting them back.

Hi, do you have a picture and the price? I live in Canada, so it would have to be shipped USPS. Is it the GIVI TB106?

http://www.sporttour.com/shopexd.asp?id=2955, this is the one I was looking at.

Thanks

No picture, I'll try to get you one ASAP.

It's not the Givi, or any Givi. As I said, it appears to be an OEM piece, but not the one shown in 2010 model pics.

OK, appreciate. I was thinking of building my own, but it seem to be a tight spot to fit anything.

We will see how much it is for shipping, but I am going through Louisville comming January, going south to Texas.

Hello. I was wondering if the backrest was still for sale? I could use one.

We are on the final discussions on this one, just waiting for confirmation.
