Drivers backrest
I also have the Harley adjustable. I was also going to use it for long rides, exclusively, but once I got it on the bike, I never take it off, unless I am riding 2up. Getting the adjustable stuff put on is a bit tricky as the instructions that come with it are crap. I find it is easier to install the switch to adjust the seat if you already have midframe air deflectors.

I have the stock seat as well as a hammock. I'm leaning towards the hd adj backseat. I'd hate to spend the money and not like it. The local dealer doent have a bike with the backseat for me to try
Also want to make sure that there is enough room for the passenger while riding 2 up

I have the HD Adjustable with the Sundowner Deep Bucket on my FLHXANV. My wife can ride with me having no issues and plenty of room (she's about 5'4" and 145lbs). I never ride without the backrest. Very comfortable with my highway pegs too.

Do yourself a favor and get the MUstang backrest. It just easier to adjust on the fly and you can't find an UNCOMFORTABLE position anywhere with the Mustang.
