Works like a charm
This is the 2nd backrest I've had from Grasshopper on 2 different bikes. Installation was very easy and instructions were easy to follow. It took about 10 minutes to install on my 2014 Strato Deluxe. These backrests are great support and with the metal used and nice cushion it allows it to give when riding rough roads and hitting bumps. Standard delivery was very quick.

Just what the Doctor ordered
I need back support due to the force this bike has when launching from a stop. From the time I received it to the time on the bike installed was less than 15 minutes. I have the solo and like that it is adjustable fore and aft. Great customer service and a great product

Slight modifications required
Ensure you have a dremel handy when installing. Removal of metal from backseat attachment bracket and some plastic from the backseat where the backrest recepticle rubs was necessary for my riders seat to reattach after installing. It's only because I've seen the prices of other backrests that the minor mod's didn't bother me. I havn't seen Grasshopper backrests for other brands and models. But I would guess it's the same basic design. A closer look by their engineering dept could have incorporated a better and stronger attachment design for my bike.
