Re: Wanted passenger backrest
If you mean one that fits to the Givi box i see on your bike, is this something you want?

looks more comfortable than anything that would just fit to the grabrail fittings.

I have one similar to the link you posted. The problem I'm having that the Givi box is mounted on a ventura rack and sits to far back from the seat itself. I've seen them before just can't find the bloody thing

There's these types of back rests for the Corbin and Sargent seats, but they won't fit a standard seat unless you do some radical modification to the seat base. Bit hexy though, they come in at about US$200 a piece plus postage (that's just the backrest, it does not include the seat ) .
Why don't you try a local car upholster, they'd have the equipment to make something up, probably a lot cheaper than the US alternatives.
PS be careful that you do not overload your top box when it is mounted to the Ventura rack, there is a lot more stress on the 4 mounting bolts than a true Givi setup. Givi have additional arms that bring the mounts up to the rear foot peg mount.
