Default 2007 Heritage Classic driver backrest

Does anyone know where I can get a good looking, good fitting driver backrest for my new Heritage? I want some that looks like it could have come from the factory. Must be well built. I don't see it in the H-D catalog.

HD doesn't offer one for the FLSTC.

You'd have to modify your seat to accomodate a backrest for another model.

You can look into a Mustang Seat, they offer seats with rider and pillion backrests.

No luck with the ebay search. I will try this forum and see what happens.

I just got one from FireHouse Customs. Not adjustable but goes well with the heritage. The web site doesn' t indicate any info on 2007 models but email or call Mark and he will hook you up.

Mark from FireHouse Customs made one for my '07 Fat Boy.
I got tired of waiting for him and gave up and bought a Mustang Seat.
I'll sell you that one for $100 and I'll pay for the shipping.
I think it's $130 from himwith shipping.
I never put it on the bike.
I got the non stud pad.
PM me if you're interested.

Thanks.

I do want the one with the studs though, to match the rest of the bike.
