Are you talking about the frame bracket? Or the backrest?

He's talking about the backrest itself. You'll notice a grommeted hole in the leather / vinyl sleeve that covers the backrest hardware. You can fit an allen wrench through it to access the adjustment screw. It gives you fine adjustments forward and aft. I used Locktite on mine as I was afraid it would vibrate out.

It's on the backrest just below the hinge that connects the backrest to the support. The support plugs into the brace. It's covered by a sleeve that covers the support. You have to pull up the sleeve to see it. There's an eyelet on the sleeve to slide a torx through so you can adjust it.
That's how mine is. It's very possible yours could be different.

Thanks again, I have the bracket all installed. Appreciate the help from everyone. My backrest was scheduled to arrive Friday...the post office messed up, will receive Monday.
