YamahaPart.com has about the best deals around. It's $157.46 with free shipping. That's where I ordered mine from and they had great customer service.

Nice...I ordered the Mustang backrest pad as the OEM one always seem to be on B/O...plus the Mustang one is WAY nicer and only $10-15 more.

Oh and by the way most folks on here who've purchased the QR model regretted it. It literally only takes a couple of minutes to install/remove the fixed mount and it's almost $100 cheaper.

The fixed to which you linked is the short, the QR is the tall. If you look at the tall, fixed, it looks the same as the tall, QR.

:doh: man thats all the pics I could find on the fixed.. hopefully they can change my order

Exactly right. My tall fixed is identical to tall QR you've linked to.

ok got my order backed out and put in a new one for the tall fixed bar.. thanks for the info.. my gf will be thrilled, and i saved 80 bucks for my front led blinkers

I have the QR and wish I had gotten the fixed, I have to switch it all around when the wife rides cause I don't like leaving the Frankenstein bolts in when riding solo. As everyone says- only takes a few minutes.

You guys should just check out my quick release backrest.

QR is not worth the extra money over fixed IMO

I like the QR as well. I have the bags mounted on mine , so maybe it doesn't look as bad when its off.
