has anyone installed the seat and back rest from a venture on a 1997+ vmax? pics of it installed would be great ive seen just the seat but never the backrest/hand grips assembly.... one came up for sale and the seller advertised it as fitting a vmax so it got me curious. may be easier to do this than to find a low mileage venture
 

The first pic is a 1997 Venture with shorter style two up seats. This seat ends before the tunnel extension. Not sure if all 1997 Ventures had them. I've seen this same seat used on the short track 121 VMaxs. (See pic)

My 2000 Venture had the long style 2 up that went all the way to the end of the tunnel extension.

Thanks for the the info, the pic of that purple one is about all I could find on google. Vmax’s seem to be way cheaper and easier to find than ventures and I have acces to the seat and backrest assembly from a 97 venture pretty cheap so I’m thinking of going that route since I wouldn’t be riding 2 up that often but would
D like to have the option. I’m just really curious if the factory backrest and grip assembly could be mounted
