I take it that you would like to ride a big bike but you prefer to feel the wind in your vagina...

Buy some love handles and a Fireblade, you'll look far more cool.

If they can't hold on well enough without a backrest they aren't big enough to be on the back of a bike with a backrest - even in France.

After all, what happens when you go around a corner, they might fall off sideways so you'll be wanting armrests too. Then of course you'll want leg protectors for them. And then it might rain, so a roof is a must.

If you want "safety" for your kids, buy a car.

So, despite the abuse you've received, you still think this is the right forum to ask?

By the same token, I assume that the kids aren't actually yours, but belong to the woman who's opening her legs so that you'll pay for all their shit.

For the standard YBR maybe can bodge to the custom though. Or fabricate your own.

Though it's not going to make your bike any "safer", infact unless your child is morbidly obese their back won't even be on the rest, they will be further forward holding on to you.

Also your bike is not a cruiser so it will look utterly stupid.

Think about it; of the entire motorcycling population, that represents about 1% of road use.... how many regularly carry pillions? Of them, how many carry pillions on a 125? Of THEM how many carry pillions on a YBR125.... and then, narrowing the poll group down to... err probably you... would want a sissy bar for them?

Likelihood of some-one having simlar aspiration is pretty slim, really isn't it? As is the likelihood that any-one like rentek would look at thier range of after-market accessories like racks and crash-bars and the like, and think, "Hey found a hole in the market! We need a Sissy-Bar for Norm's YBR"

But that's where you should be asking the Q really, in the vein hope some-one does make one.... people who make bike accessories.... which sort of suggests you have doe that and answered your own question and are clutching at straws.

So, slightly more practical advice..... most stuff can be made to fit, provided you have a big enough hammer..... to-wit; doesn't have to be made specifically for the YBR, but, to make something of suitable style and dimensions may take a bit of engine-uity with hammer and file, bits of metal ad possibly a welder... and plenty of Chinky 125 Cruisers about that have such stuff as standard or for which e-bay s glorious mine of such after-market tat.

Alternatively, the YBR is a commuter bike, and a rack and top box is a much more popular accessory for one, and you can get top-boxes with padded back-rests.. practically, does the same job you 'say' you want a sissy bar to do, and more; giving you place to stow pillion hat or kids lunch box or whatever, and you almost certainly can buy off the shelf for the YBR.....

Depending upon if you are more interested in looks than practicality, an alternative would be to fit a top box. That's useful for carrying your kids' stuff in, and gives confidence that they won't slide off backwards. Givi boxes have a backrest cushion available as an option to make leaning against it more comfortable.

Get one on a detachable base plate; only fit it when you install childling.

As some-one who has more often 2upped on a tiddler; and even one with a sissy bar.... come ON... passenger isn't going to slide off the back! G-Force? They are't going to experience much in that direction really are they? Only time one of my passengers has grumbled about 'almost falling off the back' has been 'cos the seats so short and two bums barely fit it! But, back-rest does make them feel a bit ore secure; and does incline them to less wriggling about or leaning into your back and bumping hats. BUT, top box of sissy, its a protuberance, that can cause annoyance when trying to get a leg over.. when solo, and more so when you try fitting childling.

If you mount before passenger, then they can have trouble clambering to the gap between you and back-rest.. you are likely to get knees n your kidneys while being throttled ad head-butted.. easier, but still a bit of a pain is to mount passenger first, but the you have to sort of step over the tank into the hole.

I found it not so much of a problem on the 125 Super-Dream, that for a tiddler is a little more accommodating and longer in the seat than most, and has a centre stand, which means seats higher, taking more clambering but at least flat ad a tad more stable; where the Chinky 125 Cruiserette Snowie had, with only a side-stand was a bit more precarious.

Where no back-rest, is easier to mount a passenger, either way round, its just not in the way, and if they mount first, they can sort of skooch back over the grab-rail to give you mounting space without kicking them the head!

Pro's and Cons, either which way; but, I'd say dot sweat it, advantage of a back-rest are possibly not so great in reality;begging suggestion try a top-box on release plate, so you can try with and without, with risk reducer that if t don't work, you are likely to be able to get some of your money back selling on, if you don't get on.

To be honest, a Givi topbox will cost more than a YBR125...
