Looking for backrest for GZ250 2004

Hi there,

I am in Canada and have a 2004 GZ250 Marauder. Just wondering if it is possible to get a back-rest for this model, and if so a good spot in Canada to order one??
Loving the ride so far, thanks!

Re: Looking for backrest for GZ250 2004

Hello,

Seeing that no one else responded to this I'll give it a shot.

What I did was look around for someone selling a GZ250 with the accessory I wanted (craigs list) and messaged them about buying just the accessory. I got some saddle bags, saddle bag supports, and a sissy bar (backrest) for $150, which I think is a heck of a deal. They guy was so nice he installed everything for me.

Hope this helps!!!!

Welcome to the family.If you can't find one,the backrest from a Suzuki can made to fit with very little modification.You just need to drill a couple of holes in the side rails.
:cool:
