this one, no driver backrest

I actually really like it, got it late last season off a wreck, I haven't been on it longer then 95 miles at a time yet but so far it feels much better then the stocker and I think it looks better too. Wife says it's no better then stock though, too much slope, tries to slide her forward. She said if the backrest weren't so far back and on an rearward angle it might be better. I see Mustang makes a backrest that angles forward to make up for this. I might try to mock up my existing one like the Mustang and see if helps her out, if so, I'll buy one. I just thought the Mustang looked more passenger friendly although I'm not sure I like the overall look of it style wise.

Anyone want to trade a Mustang seat for a Corbin? I like my Corbin but
the wife is so-so on it.  The Mustang looks better for a passenger.
