| Behold... the R1200GS Stealth Backrest®. After a full year of research, development, and real-world testing the GS Stealth backrest has turned out to be, as expected, a thing of beauty, simplicity, and comfort and.. a worthy addition to the Pirates' Lair line of specialty BMW products. The lightweight stainless steel stealth bracket with it's patented design bolts directly to the rear factory rack via furnished stainless steel hardware and blends perfectly with the lines of the bike. The production versions are covered with a slightly textured silver powder coating that closely matches the color of the factory rack. The backrest's polished stainless steel slide bar slides on and off the bike in under 20 seconds and.. without tools. and yes.. these will fit the 2008 model! |

Give your passenger the support and comfort they deserve/demand when they need it and say good-bye to those pesky fingernail imprints in your ribs. As soon as they get off... remove the backrest and ride without looking like a sherpa with all kinds of ugly visible bracketry cluttering up the world's most beautiful dual purpose bike. For what it's worth... I think it's the sleekest of all our "Stealth" backrests and definitely worthy of the moniker. |

Pirates' Lair also offers optional semi-soft luggage for all our Stealth backrests from CDL, Enterprises.. makers of T-Bags. A small around town Roll bag and a larger Universal Helmet bag. When your passenger isn't on board, flip the bag around and have it sitting in the seat behind you for better weight distribution. Attention Gravitationally Challenged: Due to design restraints, we were limited in how much fore and aft room we could provide with our GS stealth. All our prototype tester's passengers were either normal weight or slim women. All said that they had PLENTY of room and were perfectly comfy. However.. it is our opinion that an overweight passenger or man might find the accommodations... lacking. Therefore, we suggest you seriously evaluate this aspect (and your passenger's) before purchasing. * Pirates' Lair offers a Full 3 Yr Replacement warranty and I'll assume that Sargent will stand behind their pads and covers. Either way.. we're here should you need anything. Questions? Call 828.628.7093 EST |

| Price Increase Notice: Here Ye.. Here Ye... As of May 15th, 2008 the price for every backrest we sell will increase by $20 ea. Apparently China is buying up all the worlds stainless steel (or so they tell me) causing prices to skyrocket. Believe me.. I hate it as much as you. They also inform me that prices will go up again in July.. Geezz.. |

| Want to save some money on a backrest? Not as anal as the rest of us poor bastards? On any given day, we may have a few slightly flawed brackets on hand. As the brackets are powder coated, sometimes the process leaves tiny blemishes on the visible finish surface. I deem these "unworthy" of selling at full retail price hence the $30 discount. FYI.. my standards are very rigid. Most people will never notice the flaws when it's installed. Note: The actual padded section on ALL Stealth Backrests are ALWAYS PERFECT. All flaws are on the actual bracket itself. None of the flaws effect structural integrity. Flaws are cosmetic only. Call for availability before ordering!! 828.628.7093 EST |
