Rack & backrest.

[Filthy Phil]

Does anyone know if a rack & backrest off a 2009 standard will fit a 2015 Roadster?
I bought a rack, backrest & brackets used on-line but didn't realise that the brackets were different.
If i can get some brackets will the backrest & rack fit?

Should fit with no problem

It doesn't look like the brackets are long enough.

How about slipping the bracket under the fender mount cover, adding a hidden bolt and nut for the forward mount hole and notching the cover around the bracket?

Correct, it goes under the cover which needs to have a cutout.

Once you remove the cover you'll see where it bolts on, going to fit I'm pretty sure

Thanks for the covers Mittzy.
I took the covers off & there isn't a hole threw the frame so look like I'm going to have to drill one.
Also the front hole in the bracket doesn't seem to sit flush up against the frame so am I also missing a spacer?

Ok ,assumed he had the right sissy bar covers. Don't the Roadsters have the holes in the guard support to mount sissy bar brackets to ?
