Dunno....It looks as if you'd have to cut it down a bit to make it fit....

Sometimes you have to move or open up the mounting holes. I have a similar backrest on my 150 4T

It looks like the cross bar with the 4 holes is going to land right around the same spot the catchment pin for your seat is located on your bike. I bet you have to mod it a little but it shouldn't be hard. I ordered their Zero Cafe Racer seat and had to do a fair bit of grinding and cutting to make it fit my 4t but it was worth every penny.

That's nice but this thread isn't about your seat. I was responding to the original posters question about the seat they linked.

Yours is a 2t... his is a 4t.... slotrods is a 4t.
Just wallow out the holes with a larger drill bit and it should work out. Maybe.
But, if you dont have tools and are not too handy, then maybe youde better not try, unless you get someone who is to help you.
Good luck
