Default Ultra Limited Passenger compliants

With the new tour pack the extra padding against their backs is a plus but this moves them up on the armrest and does not allow them to use the armrests to brace themselves on rough roads like the used to on the older tour packs. Does any one make arm rest extensions or pads with longer arm rests or less back padding? Also does anyone make a passenger cup holder that will work for the 14's? the models I had mounted behind the speakers and the shape has changed and these will no longer work. The advertised increase in passenger room is some what misleading at least with my driver back rest installed, again this is due to the extra padding for the passengers back. Is there a relocation kit out yet?
I am surprised that MoCo hasn't addressed some of these with products as quite a few are being bought as luxury tourers and these comforts are what passengers have come to expect. These complaints have come from 4 different passengers. The cup holder for all of them. The arm rest from 3 and the distance from 2.

I would check Corbin's web site for starters. Then Mustang Seats

Corbin may be an option for a passenger backrest it does not look like Mustang offers 14's yet as far as I can see.

Mustang now has a seat available with 2" longer armrest.

Kuryakyn has a new tourpak mounted drink holder but they say its out of stock until late may. It is part # 1692. It is just like the 1482 for the pre 14 tourpaks.

Hog Troughs also says they will have one available June 1st http://www.hogtrough.com/portfolio/p...le-cup-holder/

Greg2012flhtk thanks for this info. I found some of this out after posting. I don't see any info on Mustangs web sight about the back rest. Where did you find out about these and have you seen one? Do You own one and do the match up well with the stock seat.

I had one for my 12 Limited. It matched the stock seat. My wife said it was much more comfortable then the stock backrest. I don't have one on my 14. My wife likes the stock one on the 14. Here is a link to the Mustang website showing the 14 backrest. They have several different styles to pick from. http://www.mustangseats.com/Categori...h=extended+arm

My wife had similar complaints. We added the passenger hand grab rails and for a beverage we got the beverage holder and small bag that go on the rear crash bars.

My wife likes having the drink holder up by the armrest. She also likes being able to put cups in it so if we stop at a gas station she can buy a fountain drink to take with her. The style you have is only good for water bottles and they have to reach down to get to it.

Hey Badlands, what set of passenger grab rails did you use? The only ones I can find all say they won't fit a 2015 Ultra Limited with the tour-pak speakers. It looks like your '14 has those but you have the rails.

The limited has an adjustable tour pack if you look under the trunk on the mounting plate. There are different mounting holes to move the trunk further back. If it's already I'm the furthest position, you have the option of either buying a Kuryakyn adjustable mounting plate or making one to slide it back.

I believe the factory plate will let you move it, either 2 or 3 inches overall
