Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums Accessories Solo Seat & Backrest

Hello everyone! Long-time lurker here in need of advice. I have a 2002 Bonneville America and it had the 'gunfighter' seat on it when I got it. I think I would prefer a solo seat and some type of backrest. I'm 5'10" and 230 lbs with a 30" inseam. What solo-type seat would you suggest and what backrest would work with that seat? Anyone have a seat, backrest and/or fender mounted luggage rack you think would work for me? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Check out fast Eddie sports for this , he is an honest man and a sponsor of this site . Check out the pro tech backrest

I will contact Fast Eddie.
Heard nothing but great things about him.
Eager to find out about the Pro Tech backrest.
Thank you very much.

#1 Pro-Tech back rest

Thanks!
Just sent Fast Eddy an email asking about the backrest.
Asking him for info on a possible new solo seat and need some tires, too.
I appreciate everyone's willingness to help a rookie like me.

corbin seats are very expensive but they're great.

Might be worth looking for a used one because people take them off when they're selling.

I have a solo seat with a gel pad. It has a small hole real small like a poke hole. I would sell it, PM me if your interested I will get some pics together if you don't want it I will probably put it up for sale anyways

Thanks for the Corbin seat idea. I would be very interested if anyone has one for sale. I'll also look locally if no one has anything here.

Hi ChuckyJ. Sending you a PM. Thanks!

Another vote for the Corbin w/backrest. I bought mine from a member here and have been very happy with it. But I also have one of these for longer rides. https://www.harley-davidson.com/store/ci...w&gclsrc=ds

I put it on top of the Corbin and it allows air to circulate in high humidity. No swamp ass - ever.

Hi Hermit,
Thanks for the Corbin seat with backrest recommendation and pad link.
