    If Triumph can do it so can I :)
    Gonna make a back rest to go with the rack that I made in something for CERBERUS part two :cool:
    However I have set myself the challenge of making an adjustable one :eek:
    @SleepyOwl mate if you could do me a big favour and measure the range of movement that the back rest has on your GT it would be much appreciated :)

    to the bottom of the seat is 5cm travel. Seat is 10cm high so 15 cm to top of seat at its highest. That is from where the seat meets the bracket where you can see the two indents. Other pic shows extent of travel.
    Let me know if you need anything else

    The OEM seat travel is quite small at 5cm (approx 2"), I'm sure your seat will improve on this @dilligaf ......

    Yes I can :)
    I’m in charge :imp:
    Part two is basically finished apart from some captivated nuts that need to be tack welded in place to hold hold part three :)
    Until I make part three I don’t know where they go :confused:

    Found some 1” angle iron and thought I’d make a start :) B1C53BE4-415D-4591-9575-689168019DB5.jpeg Should sit nicely when it’s all done :cool: 666C127E-26A6-4392-B3A7-FDB7FF5DF644.jpeg

    Can’t be 100% sure :confused:
    But it might have a range of 8cm :eek:
    Totally unnecessary but I’ve challenged myself to make an adjustable one so I’m gonna go for it :p

    This is my supply for any fabrication work I’m doing at the moment :confused:
    The piece with rounded off corners was already like that and was left over from previous projects :p 1B3A5985-78D5-43BD-BF67-D052670CB3A8.jpeg

    When I was cleaning out my garage I used my angle grinder :p and ground off the lever system on a cantilever toolbox :)
    I used the trays to make wall mounted bins and those were left over :)
    They’re not very big though :confused:
