Default Driver back rest

I have a 94 Heritage Classic. I am looking for a driver back rest to put on the stock seat. Any ideas on where to get one or who might carry them. Seems like they have them for Road kings and such, but not the Heritage. Thanks.
Mike

Mike,
Take a look at my picture, this is a 06 Heritage but this backrest will fit your year also. I got it last year after seeing it at a show in Gettysburg, Pa.it sold for 79.00 which isn't bad. These are not HD products. The good versus the bad...This backrest will cause you to move closer to the tank so if you are not the tallest person, this is good when tring to reach the kick stand. It gives very good support to the lower back and I found it most comfortable...now the not so good. It is stationary, which means you have to swing your leg over top of it or slide your foot over your seat to mount your bike and to dismount. It is a little ackward at first but not now. I will locate the information about this unit and give to you if I hear back from you after this post.
