R3T backrest removal

[shunternz]

Hi. I have a R3T and have removed the backrest as it doesn't suit my needs. There is now a hole in the seat where the backrest hardware was located. Does anyone know if there is a part that can be order to fill this hole? Thanks

Yes there is a filler, a black rubber cube with 2 bolt heads on the bottom, for tightening it up.
I just went out to the garage to look at mine and there is no part # on it!
sorry I couldnt be more helpful.

Thanks for checking it out. I'll try Triumph but don't hold out much luck. Cheers

No part number on mine either... But it came with the bike.. Did you buy it new??? If so I would think it should have been with the bike.

It comes stock on the long haul seat since the backrest is an additional option. I probably still have my old one if you want it. I can check when I get home. All it is is a rubber/plastic plug.

It took me so F#%king long to install mine, the thought of removing it just put me in a cold sweat!

I got your pm. I emailed you back. As stated, you can have the thing as I have no need for it (no longer have my Rocket). I even stuck the 2 bolts back in it when I took it off so you'll have those too.

So thats where that little rubber thingy goes. It was in my saddle bag when I got the bike. About 1 1/2"x 1" with two little bolts in it. I thought it was a plug to keep the Scot out of her exhaust at night time.
