You guys are making this decision difficult.

I'm gonna order me a Grasshopper. Quick install and removal, looks great, and 90 bucks sounds right to me.

Plus I've heard nothing but great reviews.

I am leaning toward the Backup. I ride a lot two up and like the idea of being able to push it forward without having to pull it in and out.

Ridemslow - Do you have the original seat?

My Grasshopper came in the mail on Friday,I just need my seats back from the upholsters and nice weather so i can try it out.

roadman, Lonnie told me he doesn't make the grasshoppers for Mustang seats! Let me know if yours turns out OK and I will ask him again.

I think I am going to go with the Backup because it can be pushed forward. Does anyone have a picture of one installed on a 1500?

ridemslow · 03-08-2009, 08:23 PM

Yes total stock seats. I did have it reworked with memory foam for more comfy fit on my but tho.;D

If you want to spend three times the amount, don't buy a Grasshopper backrest and be sorry later!!
