cool backrest how did you do it?

**Top Cat** · 09-09-2011, 09:28 PM

I bought a grasshoper backrest for a Nomad 1600.
Then I bought a seat off Ebay.
Cut a slot in the seam between the front and back sections.
Drilled a hole down through the slot and then cut a rectangle in the plastic seat pan to slip the bracket through.
I had to heat the bracket and bend it a few times till I got it right.
Then installed the holding bracket from grasshopper to the bottom of the seat, slipped the backrest down through the seat and into the holder.

Elaine said are you going to patent it :-/

**Jared** · 09-10-2011, 09:10 AM

For a not so mechanically inclined person, you did a nice job...

**Top Cat** · 09-10-2011, 09:24 AM

Lar, tell Elaine no patent. It is not a very professional looking job if you look on the under side of the seat. ::)
Not sure how it is going to hold up in the long run.
Thanks Jared, it looks OK when the seat is installed but not sure how sturdy it is going to be after some usage.
It is still a work in progress

Aren't you clever?

Looks good Tim. You know what they say, If they can't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Well Cindy said I am handsome and handy.

No, she didn't say that but I think I am anyway.

Your dilusional Tim.
