Default Adjustable Rider Backrest Installation

Does anyone have a copy of the installation instructions for the adjustable backrest mounting kit, 52593-09a? Bought one used with no instructions, looks pretty basic just wanted the instructions to make sure I don't miss anything.

I'm sure someone else may have them for you faster, but if you can wait until Monday, I'll scan the pages in and email them to you.

Cool Anybodu have mounting instructions for adjustable rider backrest??

I bought a used adjustable rider backrest for my 2008 ElectraGlide, but got know instructions. My question deals with the mounting location of the pull lever. Can anyone provide a picture or a copy of the installation instructions? (p/n: 52593-09A)

Cliff I'd send you the pdf for your install but I don't know how to email you. You can go to Harleydavidson.com and in the Genuine Parts section do a search on your part number. This will take you right to your part. Click on the part and you will see a picture of the item and a description. You will also see a pdf which are the instructions for downloading. This is available on the website for most parts.
