Fits 2021 C50 Boulevard
Fits okay, not the easiest installation, I had to push the bracket under the passenger seat itself with washers to increase the clearance. After that modification it fits with some hard pushing and tugging it into place. Feels firm, I'll have to crete some sort of a fitting so it won't be just sitting there loose when not in use. The passenger seat will not sit flush anymore, see the comparison pictures and an okay with that. The padding is sturdy. I'll probably add more staples to the cover, seems like it needs them. And I'll probably fix the support bar, looks a bit off alignment with the padding, not a biggie. Overall, looks and feels good. I'll update once I ride for a while.

Fits perfectly and easily
The backrest installed perfectly on my 2005 Suzuki boulevard. No alterations were necessary and it went on like a charm. As this was my first backrest, I had to get used to the seating position but after a few rides, I can't imagine riding without one. Definitely one of my better purchases. Recommended.

Overall a major improvement in comfort.
I'm a pretty big fan of this, but it's not perfect. It's a heck of a lot better than not having one but it does shift around a fair bit. The bracket needs to be bent forward regularly after having weight on it which is extremely easy to do even while riding but it would be nice to have a little more strength to the bracket. It's a very comfortable backrest though. Easy enough to install although I couldn't get the reat seat bolt to line up with the mounting hole no matter what I tried, so I just drilled the hole on the back seat bracket to all the seat to sit a little farther back. For the money this thing is great.

Great Backrest. Love It!!!!!
This back rest looks perfect on my 2019 C 50 T Boulevard. Amazon did not show I studded version when I placed the order but I saw where someone had requested one and they had shipped it. So I ordered the non-studied version and immediately sent an email and ask them to substitute a studded version. Guess white that’s what I got. I am so pleased it looks beautiful on my bike. The dealer said that they did not have one available and I would have to order a $650 mustang seat to get one. This is a beautiful product for $75 and it matches the studs on my boulevard exactly.Now for a hint on installation. The passenger seat frame does not fit over the front passenger seat bracket on the motorcycle. This makes the passenger seat extremely hard to get on or off the bike. I removed four staples from the cover where the latch fits into the bracket on the motorcycle. With my dremel tool with a cutter attachment I cut About a 3/8 inch knot has from of the plastic frame to make room for the bracket to engage. Then I just stapled the cover back on with my staplegun. My seat slides on and off like butter now. This is a design flaw from Suzuki and has nothing to do with this back rest. I would suggest anyone modified their passenger seat this way to make it easier to remove and service the bike.Again thank you so much for supplying me with such a wonderful product at such a value based price.

Easy to install!
No modifications needed to install this seat back. Sturdy, well crafted, and really complements to look of my 2009 Suzuki Boulevard. Adds an extra level of comfort to an already comfortable Bike.

The best purchase I've made for my bike so far!
Very simple to install and extremely comfortable. I used to have issues with pressure on my lower back and the top of my butt would go numb on long rides. I installed this and it completely corrected my issues! I purchased the non Studded style so it would match my sissy bar pad. I love the fact that it just slides right out for my passenger to swing her leg over easier or for storing out of sight when parked in public so nobody tries to steal it.

Nice product.
Fast shipping and well packed.This backrest is very nice. The material matches the seat of my 2007 Suzuki C50 really well and the stitching looks good.The only (slight) modifications I had to do was putting washers below the mounting bracket because the base/bracket pressed against my driver's seat a little bit and I didn't want to leave a wear mark.I followed the instructions about adding a bit of tape on the seat-back tab to eliminate any slop, and one layer of Gorilla Tape worked perfectly. Installation was a breeze.The mods I mentioned were very minor. The backrest itself is quite nice.Keep in mind that the backrest will push you forward an inch or two. Other than that, this is a great addition for long rides. It'll keep you in the saddle a lot longer without worrying about hurting your lower back.
