Abstract: A golf club has a first shaft coupled to a club head, a second shaft configured to slidably engage a portion of the first shaft, a grip coupled to the second shaft, and an adjustable length shaft assembly received by the second shaft and configured to allow a portion of the first shaft to slide in relation to the second shaft in a first configuration, and to restrict a portion of the first shaft from sliding in relation to the second shaft in a second configuration. The grip is restricted from rotation about the first shaft or the second shaft as the first shaft slides in relation to the second shaft.

Abstract: An adjustable back rest for a motorcycle comprising a carrier assembly connected to the frame of the motorcycle, a back plate assembly pivotally attached to the carrier assembly and positionable at an inclination angle, and an extensible slide connected between the carrier assembly and the back plate assembly that extends or retracts to thereby adjust the inclination angle of the back plate assembly and then is secured in place to position the back plate assembly as desired. A pillion rest is attached to the back plate assembly and is angularly adjustable by positioning a plurality of bar links connected between the pillion rest and the back plate assembly. The carrier assembly can be positioned and secured to the motorcycle frame to provide back rest support for the driver, or it may be positioned and secured to a cargo carrier attached to the frame to provide back rest support for the passenger.
