As johnny mentioned I have a 35L top case from a K100LT. You get the backrest plus it's a big top case which I was really wanting.

If you're into the idea of a top case you can find aftermarket ones pretty cheap on ebay or fro JC Whitney which often have backrests with them. Just have to fab up from brackets

I have a Givi topcase on one K75 and a small OEM topcase on another one. Both do the job but the Givi is probably better for back support. The small OEM topcase serves more to prevent backslide. The thing about the OEM topcase though is that they don't require any drilling. The Givi case required drilling four holes in the rear cowling -- actually in my case five since the PO or whoever installed it either didn't get it right the first time or couldn't count to four properly.

I have the full size K100 top case in several colors as well as the smaller 22 liter box available if you are interested.
