anti vibration mount

I thought I should tell all riders that use a tour box mounted passenger backrest to check the rubber mount that holds the backrest to the tour box.

I lost my back rest today on the super slab. The rubber mount broke wthout warning and the backrest fell onto the highway.

It might be an item to change once in awhile. Cost of a mount $5. cost of a backrest $250

Not to make fun of your misfortune...but here goes.

Cost of mount $5
Cost of Backrest $250
Cost of seeing your face while the backrest is flipping down the asphalt - priceless

Like a CC commercial! LOL!
Sorry, I could not resist. Good tip, thanks.
