Passenger Backrest For Volusia

My wife is starting to get interested in riding. I thought I try to make the back seat a bit more comfortable for her by adding a backrest. Looking on the Suzuki OEM page, I found a backrest and mount set #99950-70272 for $214.95 which is 12 in. tall. I also saw the Billet Backrest Tall (99950-70390) for 199.95 and the Billet Backrest Low (99950-70391) for the same price. It was interesting that the low backrest is advertised as being 12 5/8 inches tall from the rear bolt and the tall is 12.0 inches tall. I guess there is a mistake somewhere. I would also have to buy the mounting hardware with the Billet Backrests ad would like to add a rack to the backrest.

My questions; does anyone on this forum have one of the above backrests on their bikes and how do you like it? This is probably going to involve the fender bolt removal. Will I run into a problem with realigning the bolts after they are removed? Thanks for your replies.

Do not, I repeat, do not take all the bolts off at the same time unless you really have to. It really is murder to get them back in. Took me 2 hours and 6 walk aways before I got them back in.
I do not know why I keep producing double posts. Does anyone have any ideas?
