Don't have a pic of this, so I'll try to do a word picture: The rear plastic (called a cowl, which covers the taillight and rear frame assembly on a 750) has a recessed "lip" around its top, which fits under the seat.
The backrest has a rear bracket which attaches to the rear frame assembly, underneath (inside) that lip in the cowl. So 2-3" of the plastic cowl's lip must be removed to allow the rear bracket to have access to its mounting point on the frame. This sounds intimidating to most, unless you realize that, when reassembled, the bracket and the seat cover the hole created by removing part of the plastic, so that the hole is no longer visible. So the backrest assembly looks as if it has always been there. The cut can be made easily with a coping saw or a dremel with a cutoff wheel, and is really no big deal.
