Default Backrest Sissy Bar Part Number Question
Okay, I think I have my shopping list set but want to make sure I'm not missing something in the fine print.

I have an 07 FXDC, will the following part numbers work and will this be everything I need?

Big Thanks in Advance,
Rick

Sofus,

Are you sure that I need that if I buy the 53961-06 docking hardware kit? I ask because I don't see 53968-06B listed as a requirement for the 07 FXDC installation.

Thanks,
Rick

Yes, you need it.
You can use The Customizer on HD's site to add the backrest. If you print out the shopping list, you'll see it.
I did not and missed part 53968-06B.Had to reorderit.2008 Street Bob.

That's weird, you're right, it shows it in the customizer but if you look up 07 FXDC on the motor accessories site and click on the detachables they only indicate the docking hardware. Thanks! Will order both.

Koppster I found the mini backrest to short for passengers. It looks good though.
