Now - so your passenger can be as happy as you are - introducing the first Passenger Bakup! This one fits R1100-1150RT and RS.* The passenger's backrest has all the same features as the rider's Bakup, but it comes attached to its own stainless platform that simply bolts into the existing holes on the stock luggage rack. You'll like the way it looks on the bike and your passenger will thank you for the way it feels!

BakUp backrest for BMW R1100 or R1150RS*The 1100 and 1150RS can have two types of luggage rack, a standard flat one (pictured) or a slightly larger one for installing an optional top case. The larger one is the same rack that comes standard on the RT. The Bakup fits either of these racks with no modifications, though it is ideally sized for the larger RT type rack. On the smaller flat rack, the back corners of the Bakup base overhang the rack by a small amount.
