Top Back rest

[Brighton Brado]

Hello Has anyone fitted a back rest to their top box? my wife as pillion says the backbox is hurting her back, I have found one on ebay for £126.00 or is there a cheaper after market back rest any one can recommend many thank x

£126!! 
Does your wife have a jacket with a back protector? That  would help. What top box have you got fitted? Is the box too close to the pillion seat, as the early vstroms were? Some people relocated their boxes further back.

I have a Givi top box. The back pad for that was an optional extra but it was about £50 and that felt bloody expensive. Rusty's suggestion of moving the box back a bit is a good one too. I had to do that on my Strom and the Super Tenere.

I would think most back boxes could be fitted with a back rest but what make do you have? We have a Givi 52Lt on the back of ours and if we put a backrest on it the wife says she is pushed too far forward and it is uncomfortable as well.
She says she is comfortable enough with the back protection she has in her jacket.

Sportsbikeshop sell them, they start at £ 30.00

I bought one for my Givi top box. It's an old model but the back rest was around £30 and well worth it.

For them prices I would would tie a cushion on the box and make do.
