| Here (I hope) is a photo of my Butt-rest to Backrest conversion. More pics are in my personal album.

| The finished product looks very nice. The photos are good for attaching the base to the seat and the backboard to the butt rest, but I don't follow the hinges and how it goes together. Kudos on the finished product. It looks pretty comfortable! |

I've uploaded another photo that should be self-explanatory but notes added anyway. I've just done around 100 miles on very pot-holed Lancashire "B" roads and my back feels fine - I feel I could ride for hours more. |

| The photo and explanation you added clarified the construction details. Nice job. Enjoy your backrest. I did the Leroy Beals mod to mine about a year ago and it's made my riding much more comfortable. |
