Any tips for Back Rest on RKC
I bought one today and have the bracket moved as far back and even tweaked the bracket but you can see it still leans forward ..
It puts some part in a uncomfortable position on the edge of the tank.. any other adjustments? who did they make these for kids i swear it moves me over 2 inches forward I also like that this pick here .. guess what the bracket isnt like that if it was i would be in good shape Harley-Davidson | Products

Re: Any tips for Back Rest on RKC
mine does the same, but it and my bike are 9 yrs old and it doesn't bother me. try sticking the rest deeper in the holder and see if it fixes it.

Re: Any tips for Back Rest on RKC
Have you adjusted the tilt screw? It is located behind the bottom of the backrest pad. It is a allen screw. Screw it out allows for the backrest to tilt back.
